Pre-Medicine

Maryville’s Pre-Professional Program advisers are committed to helping students arrange appropriate programs of study. Interested students should contact the office of the College of Arts and Sciences for more information or to arrange a program.

While no one major is prescribed for admission to medical or dental school, strong preparation in the biological and natural sciences is generally recommended, along with a solid array of courses in the liberal arts.

Similarly, any liberal arts major that exercises the student’s analytical reading, writing and critical thinking abilities can prepare a student for law school.

Basic requirements for most Medical School admissions:

• One year of Biology
• One year of General Chemistry
• One year of Organic Chemistry
• One year of Physics
• One semester of Calculus
