Spring 2025 Registration Support Process for all new and returning prehealth students{expander}

Spring 2025 Registration Support Process for all new and returning prehealth students
 
Opens: Friday, January 10th
Due: Tuesday, January 14th at 8pm EST
 
What is the Registration Support Process
The Prehealth Program runs this process in parallel to the College's registration process. This process enables the Pre-health Program to support students' efforts to satisfy the science and math course requirements for health professional programs. This process also helps maintain an up-to-date directory of active prehealth students on campus and promotes students’ advanced planning and self-assessment to support successful candidacy to health professional programs.
 
All prehealth students, regardless of course completion status, are required to participate in this process. 
 
The science and math classes included are:
  • General Biology
  • General Chemistry 
  • Organic Chemistry
  • Physics
  • Biochemistry 
  • Calculus
  • Statistics 
All prehealth students, regardless of course completion status, are required to complete the registration support form by Wednesday, January 15th at 8 pm EST. This form should be completed once you have finalized your first round course selections. 
 
Important Note: Completing this registration form does not guarantee placement in a class. This is not early registration nor does completing this form replace the College’s registration process. However, this is an important step in the registration process to support prehealth students. 

Please direct any questions or concerns to Dean Melinda Perlo Cohen at mcohen@sarahlawrence.edu.
