Sophomore Mandatory PreHealth Advising Meeting
Pre-Medical, -Dental, -Optometry, -Podiatry, and -Veterinary
Friday, November 14, 2014 · 12 - 12:50 PM
MANDATORY attendance is required at this group advising meeting for any current UMBC sophomore or sophomore-transfer student who is interested in attending medical, dental, optometry, podiatry, or veterinary school after graduating from UMBC.
From a pre-health advising perspective, you should attend the Sophomore Workshop if:
This is your third or fourth semester in college.
or
If you are currently enrolled in CHEM 351 or CHEM 352 or BIOL 302 or BIOL 303.
This meeting will address pre-professional specific advising issues for sophomores such as professional school prerequisite courses, grades, standardized exams, gaining research, clinical, and leadership experience.
Between now and the meeting, sophomores should acquire a working knowledge of the information on the office's website. All sophomore students interested in attending medical, dental, optometry, podiatry, or veterinary school after they graduate from UMBC, are required to attend.
Pre-professional students have TWO advisors--an Assigned Academic/Major Advisor and a supplemental, pre-health advisor. It is strongly suggested that each student meet with their Assigned Academic/Major Advisor prior to attending the pre-health group advising session. Only your Assigned Academic Advisor in your declared major can grant you advising clearance.
This session will be conducted two times. The same content will be covered in both sessions. There is no need to RSVP. Please save one of these dates on your calendar.
