Pre-Clinical students, especially those admitted to the first year of the Pre- Clinical Program, may choose to obtain a degree of Bachelor of Science in Medical Sciences in addition to the medical degree. Students who wish to pursue the Baccalaureate/MD combined degree must notify the Office of the University Registrar (OUR), and the Pre-clinical Program Office in writing during the first semester of matriculation. Students may request the opportunity to simultaneously complete the Bachelor of Science Degree later in the program; however, they may be precluded from doing so due to program and time restraints.
