View source for Pre-medical concentration

A '''Pre-Medical Concentration''' (always just called '''pre-med''') is a special concentration offered to undergraduate students who wish to continue on to medical school after graduation.

Not to be confused with the [[Postbac Premed Program]] at GS, which is for students who already possess a [[BA|bachelor's degree]].

== CC and SEAS ==
Students in [[Columbia College|CC]] or [[SEAS]] who wish to be pre-med can speak with an adviser in the [[Center for Student Advising]].  Specifically, the [[Office of Pre-Professional Advising]] exists to assist undergraduates in these two schools to this end.  Pre-med is not sufficient for graduation in and of itself (unlike some other universities).  While no specific department houses the program, a specific curricular plans has been mapped out for students to follow.

In addition to the curriculum planning, students receive help prepping for the MCAT and applying to medical school.

== GS ==
[[School of General Studies|GS]] students interested in pre-med should speak with their adviser in the Dean of Students Office.  The structure of the program for current undergraduates is similar to that of CC and SEAS students.
