Bachelor mit Hauptfach in Pre-Medizin

We understand your determination and drive to enter the medical profession. That’s why our faculty members meet regularly and work closely with our students to help them succeed. Members of our faculty include one with a medical degree and another who works in the field of MCAT preparation; they have firsthand experience to assist you in all phases of the medical school planning and application process. You will also receive support from your advisor, who will help you plan your four-year program at Erskine. Planning ahead will help you minimize scheduling conflicts, enabling you to reach your goals.

Most medical and dental school students major in Biology or Chemistry because many of the prerequisite courses are built into the programs; however, this is not a requirement. Students with any major may be considered if they have demonstrated a good background in the sciences and a strong academic record. To develop the knowledge and skills you need, and to demonstrate your ability for advanced study, we recommend a rigorous course load with at least two science and/or mathematics courses during each semester for the first three years.

Erskine College is located in Due West, a town of 1,200 residents located in historic Abbeville County, South Carolina, an area rich in colonial, Revolutionary War, and Civil War history. The town and the college, with a number of antebellum buildings, are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. An annual spring festival brings a large number of tourists to share in the cultural and historic heritage of the county.

Due West is located near a number of lakes and recreational areas and within easy access to Interstate Routes 26 and 85 and the cities of Atlanta, Charlotte, Columbia, and Greenville. Greenwood and Anderson are each about 20 miles away. The town provides a restful and quiet atmosphere for study.
