What is a typical course of study in the Postbac Premed Program?
A typical roster in our program would be two laboratory science classes in the fall or spring semester, and one laboratory science class in each summer session (we have two sessions). Occasionally, students need to drop to one course for financial, health or other reasons. Also occasionally, a student sees that s/he is capable of doing well in three laboratory science courses in a single semester (usually only after having studied at Tufts first and realizing the rigor of the courses). Outlined below are three norms for completing the Tufts Postbac Premed Program. This presumes a student with no science classes prior to beginning the program. There are many other configurations, and each student designs his/her own plan with the assistance of the program advisors.
