Pre-professional Programs (to prepare for Law, Medicine, Dentistry….)

Are you considering applying to a professional program?  Consider your course selection in terms of laying the foundation for a short- term or long-term academic goal.

Pre-professional course work
If you have already decided that your academic goal is to apply for admission to a professional degree or diploma program (such as Social Work, Medicine, Engineering, Law, Radiation Therapy, Optometry and so on) at another university or college --or you would like to keep this option open-- you must become familiar and up-to-date with which courses must be completed before applying.

On the University of Winnipeg website, you can check out our Pre-professional programs . However, it is important that you consult the detailed information provided by the university or college offering a specific professional degree/diploma program. As a start, go to that university/college’s home page. You may also follow the link mentioned in the pre-professional fact sheet.

How can my UWinnipeg program help me go on to further studies?

• Do you already have a plan to go to Graduate Studies? – perhaps to a Master’s in Medical Physics, Architecture, Public Administration, Occupational Therapy, Evolutionary Biology, City Planning, or Speech Pathology?

• Do some research by first exploring the universities that offer the Graduate Studies programs you are interested in. [Note that the University of Winnipeg offers a number of Master’s programs.]

• Then go to that university’s website to see what course and degree requirements you need to complete within your undergraduate degree, in order to apply to a specific Master’s degree program. Connect this with University of Winnipeg courses and program offerings at the undergraduate level.
