The Program

The University of Virginia welcomed its inaugural cohort of students into its full-time, twelve month Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Medical Program in the summer of 2006.  The program is designed for individuals with exceptional academic records who have not fulfilled the pre-med prerequisites as an undergraduate and seek the science background to apply to medical school and a future career in medicine.

The Program’s focus is the education and immersion of students in the pre-medical science curriculum, the medical field, and medical practices and related opportunities.  Your U.Va. classes will be taught by renowned faculty. Topical medical seminars, as well as volunteer and paid medical-related experiences will acquaint you with the medical field in preparation for the MCAT entrance examination and medical school admission.

The Program provides opportunities for you to learn in an atmosphere of collegiality.  Study groups, monthly seminars, advisement, student services, and faculty contact support your needs and learning.
