Prehealth Careers Advising:
Medicine, Dentistry, Optometry, Veterinary, Physical
Therapy, Physician Assistant, Pharmacy, Chiropractic
Medicine, etc.
If you are
interested in medicine, dentistry, optometry, veterinary
medicine or other health careers, you will benefit from pre-health advising when you enroll at WSU
Vancouver.
Advisors will help you select an appropriate major that fits
your particular interests and will assist you in arranging
your course schedule to include all the courses required by
medical schools. If you opt for a non-science major, it is
especially important to seek assistance from an advisor early in order to optimize course choices.
Your pre-medicine advisor will help you enroll in the
courses you need to succeed.
Pre-medicine advisors help students improve their
interview skills in mock interviews, and provides assistance
in arranging internships and opportunities to volunteer at
local hospitals and clinics. We help you get the
experiences you need to become a strong candidate for
medical, dental, pharmacy, veterinary, or other health
professional school.
