Program details

Overview

The Associate of Science in Premedical Sciences at Georgetown American University is designed as a pathway into the university's own Doctor of Medicine program. Students work through a mix of life-science, health-related, and social-science coursework, with each course and its exams built around the structure of the MCAT. The curriculum, updated from an earlier 2014 version, focuses on building the prerequisite skills and knowledge a student needs before moving into a full medical degree, rather than standing as a terminal qualification on its own. Entry calls for a high school diploma, an SAT score, and a CXC result covering at least two science subjects along with Mathematics and English. Applicants also submit a passport copy or other government-issued photo identification and two letters of recommendation from science professionals familiar with their interest in medicine, plus proof of English proficiency such as TOEFL where it applies. A closing interview assesses each candidate's overall readiness for the program.
