Additional Preparation
Applicants are highly encouraged to take
supplementary, upper-division courses in advanced
sciences such as, but not limited to, microbiology,
cell biology, physiology, anatomy, immunology,
genetics, histology, molecular biology, virology,
and bacteriology. Students who have additional
preparatory courses in the sciences are most
successful in the program.
The dean of the College of Medical Sciences is
empowered to evaluate the total qualifications
of every student and to modify requirements in
unusual circumstances.
It should be noted that many criteria, in addition to
academic credentials, play a role in the admissions
process to professional schools. While the biomedical
sciences program does provide an opportunity for
the student to demonstrate academic capability, it
does not assure admission to any professional school.
Admission to the graduate program or completion
of courses will not guarantee admission to any other
program of Nova Southeastern University.
Admissions information for the master’s degree
program may be obtained from the
