Undergraduate Program On Campus

What You'll Learn

How do you know you're looking at a top-tier pre-medicine program? The results speak for themselves: ÃÛÌÒapp graduates score far above the national average on the MCAT and get into prestigious med schools all over the world.

Here, you'll discover everything you expect from a great pre-med program. Challenging courses. Faculty with deep experience in many medical fields. Research and internship opportunities you'd normally only experience as a graduate student.

Now add to that expert Christian professors who are actively rooting for your success. They know the skills and experiences top med schools look for and will make sure you graduate with them. You'll work with them one-on-one to identify healthcare careers that fit your interests and skills. And you'll get plenty of support as you navigate the med school application process.

What Makes This Program Great

  • Incredible research: Med schools want to see research experience on your application, and you can get it here. ÃÛÌÒapp pre-med students do paid research in areas like tropical disease, reproductive health, cancer treatment, multiple sclerosis, and many more.
  • Helpful partnerships: Through our close partnerships with area medical schools, you have a chance at one of several guaranteed seats at Wayne State or Michigan State University, or a full-tuition ÃÛÌÒapp scholarship and guaranteed interview at the University of Michigan.
  • A unique community: West Michigan is home to a huge medical community that includes some of the top-rated hospitals in the world, like Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital and Spectrum Health. That means plenty of opportunities for clinical experience in cutting-edge facilities before you graduate.
  • A flexible program: Our pre-med programs let you major in virtually anything--even a non-STEM field. We'll help you choose a major that moves you toward your goals, whether it's chemistry or music or anything else.
