Pre-Sanità (Non-Degree)

Pre-health is an advising category for those who intend to enter a professional health school. Explore areas of health care and chart your career path with 1-to-1 support from an advisor. Pre-health areas are not majors and do not grant baccalaureate degrees. Students can choose any major while also studying any of the 18 pre-health areas. Your major can enhance your career in health care or provide you with career options outside of the field.
