Pre-Professional Study (Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Medicine)
(transfer course guideline)
Oregon Health Sciences University offers a D.M.D. degree in Dentistry and an M.D. degree in Medicine, and Oregon State University offers a D.V.M. in Veterinary Medicine.
Because admission into these professional schools is highly competitive, students should plan to transfer to a four-year institution upon completion of the first year at Chemeketa. Students should complete the most rigorous chemistry sequence for which they are qualified, as well as stipulated courses in basic science and general education.
As a student, you are responsible for learning the departmental requirements of the school to which you plan to transfer. Consult with Chemeketa's Counseling and Career Services or a Chemeketa advisor. Also you should make early contact with an advisor at the institution to which you plan to transfer to learn of any possible changes in an academic area.
