What is a Post-Bacc Pre-Medical program? Post-Bacc Pre-Med programs help students prepare for acceptance into medical school and other graduate health programs.

The University of Vermont's Post-Bacc Pre-Medical program is a great way to obtain the prerequisite coursework and access to research, direct patient care experiences, as well as a Committee Letter Process, that can give students an edge prior to applying to health and medical school.

If you’re considering a post-bac pre-med program, here are some tips for success.

Use time in a post-bacc program to find out if pre-med is the right path for you and place equal value on the new skills you’ll learn along the way.

Choose a program, like the one at UVM, that allows you the flexibility to take courses that interest you outside of the core curriculum, so you can decide what you like and don’t like.

Make cold calls, ask medical professionals you know, and work your existing connections to find paid or volunteer opportunities in the medical field during and after your post-bacc program.

Even if you have a hunch you want to specialize in one field, don’t commit to one specialty until you’ve explored other areas.

Apply to medical schools that align with your previous undergrad experience and MCAT scores, and take advantage of potential linkage agreements with your post-bacc program.

In this recording, UVM Post-Bacc Pre-Medical Program Director Maggie Lambert explains how to apply to the program, deadlines, and benefits of UVM's program.
