Students interested in careers as physicians, dentists, or veterinarians need to first obtain an undergraduate degree and then apply to the appropriate professional school. While there is no specific undergraduate degree requirement for entry into professional schools, the vast majority of students accepted have degrees in Biology or Chemistry. Students should refer to the descriptions for the Biology or Chemistry professional preparation degree track programs for the degree requirements.
