Post-Baccalaureate
Are you interested in attending a Health Professional school and you have already attained a Bachelor's degree, but have not started or completed the required courses for admission to a Health Professional program?
There are two options to assist you on your journey to your desired career.
- You can attend USF as a non-degree seeking student and complete the required prerequisite courses for admission into a Health Professional program.
- You can attend USF to obtain a second Bachelor's degree in an major that contains the required prerequisites for admission into a Health Professional program.
Carefully research and consider both options before deciding. Research information about becoming a non-degree seeking student as well as the major you might want to pursue if you decide to obtain a second Bachelors degree. There are advantages and disadvantages to both options. Be aware that here at USF priority is given to students who have not yet obained a Bachelor's degree, so both Post-bacc and non-degree seekers register after current undergraduate students. However we do have many students who attend USF as post-baccalaureate students to complete the required courses for admission into their dream career.
If you have taken previous math or science courses at your undergraduate instituion and the university was not a Florida public school, you will need to have your courses evaluated here at USF to determine what they are equivalent to in order to move on in your education.
