Pre-Med Preparation Concentration - William Woods University experiences 100 percent acceptance into advanced professional degrees in medical school, pharmacy and physical therapy doctoral programs. Our Pre-Medicine concentration prepares students with the additional pre-requisite coursework they will need for admission to and success in their medical field of choice, including calculus, anatomy and physiology, chemistry and others. Additional coursework in the humanities, psychology and/or sociology is recommended, especially writing intensive classes.

Pre-Vet Preparation Concentration - Graduate schools for Veterinary Medicine are competitive, but William Woods University prepares its pre-veterinary students well. A popular program at William Woods University, we experience a high acceptance rate for students who have applied to colleges of veterinary medicine across the country.

Additional coursework in the humanities is recommended.
