Pre-Health Timelines

The application process for health professions schools can be lengthy and intensive. Applicants formally begin the process during the Fall semester one and a half years prior to when they plan to matriculate to health professional school. This means that an applicant hoping to matriculate to medical or dental school in the summer of 2029 will start by attending a workshop in the Fall semester of 2027.

Below are timelines created as images to help students (and their supporters) better understand the timeline when applying for Pre-Medical, Pre-PA and Pre-Dental health professional programs.
