What universities have pre-med majors?

Question

i'm trying to find a school with a pre-med major. esp ivy league schools. i found some but i'm not sure whether it is actually a major or not. i don't want to major in bio or chem instead. i'm most looking at ivy leagues and do they have good scholarships?

Answer 1

Pre-med is not a major.  It's a sequence of courses you take along with whatever major you choose.  Pretty much every 4-year college offers these courses.  You can major in bio and/or chem while doing pre-med, or classical Russian literature - and still apply to medical school with the same chances.  

Many Ivies do not offer scholarships, just need-based aid.  Everyone there is smart.

Answer 2

most if not all universities have pre-med majors.

research the top schools you are looking at going to.

Answer 3

Pre med can be, but usually is not a major.  It is simply about 12 standard subjects that medical schools require for admission.  All ivies, and indeed pretty much all schools, offer it.

Most ivies have schemes to ensure it is affordable if you get admitted (that is the hard part).  For example Harvard only charges 10% if you earn under $180K - zero if you earn under $60K.

Answer 4

yea the hardest part is getting in, it gets pretty political since alot of the rich people have dumb kids but make big donations to get their kids in, if you want to go premed i wopuld highly suggest biology, but you obviously need to do alot more research.

at an ivy league school i would suggest you to get in first and then find the money afterwards.

im a big fan of instate public school so i would suggest getting your education cheaper in your own state and just make good grades and apply to med school  at an ivy league school later

i would advise you to talk to your high shcool counselor because he or she will provide you with alot of help
