122 Southeastern Oklahoma State University PRENURSING There are two nursing programs which lead to certification as a Registered Nurse (R.N.). Consequently, Southeastern offers two pre-nursing programs. Two-Year Program The two year program offered by junior colleges provides the graduate with an Associate of Science degree in addition to the opportunity to obtain R.N. certification. Courses which may be taken at Southeastern and applied to the junior college program include English (two semesters), sociology (one semester), psychology (one-two semesters), nutrition (one semester), human anatomy (one semester), human physiology (one semester), and microbiology (one semester). Four-Year Program Four year nursing programs offered by senior colleges and universities provide the graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in addition to the opportunity to obtain R.N. certification. Courses which may be taken at Southeastern during the first two years of prenursing include English (two semesters), American history (one semester), American government (one semester), general chemistry (one-two semesters), nutrition (one semester), general zoology or introductory biology course for majors (one semester), microbiology (one semester), human anatomy (one semester), human physiology (one semester), psychology (one-two semesters), sociology (one semester), statistics (one semester), and other related courses. For additional information, contact the Department of Biological Sciences. PREOCCUPATIONAL THERAPY To be considered for admission to Occupational Therapy programs at most universities, a candidate must (a) have completed 64-90 semester hours of pre-professional collegiate credit with a minimum GPA of 2.75, (b) have a minimum grade of “C” in all prerequisite courses, (c) have documentation of observation experience. In addition, the candidate may be required to take the Allied Health Professions Admissions Test (AHPAT). The prerequisite courses may include English (two-three semesters), speech (one semester), American history and government (two semesters), statistics (one semester), medical terminology (one semester), psychology (two-four semesters), physics (one-two semesters), human physiology and anatomy (two semesters). For additional information, contact the Department of Biological Sciences. PREOPTOMETRY Most programs recommend a B.S./B.A. in science (chemistry, biology, or interdisciplinary medical sciences degree) for admission. All of the entering students at NSU and UT had a B.S./B.A. upon admission. The course work to be completed at time of application to the optometry program includes general chemistry with laboratory (CHEM 1315 and CHEM 1415); physics with laboratory (PHYS 1114 or 2014 and PHYS 1214 or 2114); organic chemistry with laboratory (CHEM 3053/3062); biochemistry (CHEM 4115); Principles of Biology I and II with laboratory (BIOL 1404 and 1504), microbiology (BIOL 2114); English grammar and composition (ENG 1113 and 1213), requires “C” or higher; mathematics (6 semester hours), including college algebra (MATH 1513) and trigonometry (MATH 1613), however, calculus (MATH 2215) is required at several optometry programs; statistics (STAT 2153); psychology (PSY 1113). Other courses which are strongly recommended include human anatomy (BIOL 3614) and human physiology (BIOL 3624), social sciences, humanities, public speaking (COMM 2213), analytic geometry (MATH 2113), computer science (CIS 1003), accounting (ACCT 2103), and experimental psychology (PSY 3433). The applicant must take the Optometry Admission Test (OAT), and scores must be submitted to the optometry program prior to application. The OAT should be taken the fall semester before you plan to apply. A minimum GPA of 2.5/4.0 or higher is required for all U.S. optometry programs. The same requirements will generally apply to other schools of optometry, however these specific requirements only address the program at Northeastern Oklahoma State University. For additional information, contact the Department of Chemistry, Computer, and Physical Sciences and visit the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry at www.opted. org and choose “About Optometric Education” for more details about optometry as a career. PREOSTEOPATHIC MEDICINE Most colleges of osteopathic medicine have a prerequisite of three years or 90 semester hours of college course work; however, the majority of students who are admitted will have received their bachelor’s degree upon entry. Students interested in preosteopathic medicine are encouraged to meet with an advisor as soon as possible to determine a major/minor program. It is important to understand that a student may major in any discipline as long as the minimum requirements for admission are met. Coursework should include the following: English (ENG 1113 & 1213), general chemistry I & II with lab (CHEM 1315 & 1415), organic chemistry I & II with lab (CHEM 3053, 3153, 3062 & 3162), physics I & II with lab (PHYS 1114 & 1214), and principles of biology I (BIOL 1404). In addition, at least 4 more
semester hours are needed in biological sciences and one upper division level science course. Three to five upper division science courses are recommended for a competitive application. A minimum grade of “C” is required for each prerequisite course along with a cumulative GPA of 3.0. Applicants are also required to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). This exam is now offered as a computerized exam multiple times during the year between January and September. A student may only take the MCAT a maximum of three times per year and may only register for one exam administration at a time. A minimum score of 21, average of 7.0, is required to be considered for admission. Observation hours at a doctor’s office or in a hospital setting are highly recommended by all medical programs for admission. Some schools require documented hours. The more varied the experiences the better. Applications for admission are processed through the American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM) website. Deadlines vary by school but fall the year preceding desired admission is the best time to apply. Strong applicants will be invited for an on campus interview. For additional information, contact the Department of Chemistry, Computer and Physical Sciences or the Department of Biological Sciences. PREPHARMACY Schools of pharmacy require 58-68 semester hours which should include the following courses: general chemistry (CHEM 1315 and CHEM 1415); organic chemistry (CHEM 3053/3062 and CHEM 3153/3162); biology (12-16 semester hours), typically including principles of biology I & II (BIOL 1404 and BIOL 1504), microbiology (BIOL 2214), human physiology (BIOL 3614), and/or human anatomy (BIOL 3624); physics (PHYS 1114); The programs at OUHSC and SWOSU vary significantly in their requirements for specific general education courses. Consult the program of interest to be sure you fulfill their requirements. Most applicants have obtained a B.S. at the time of acceptance into a pharmacy program. Applicants should meet the minimum GPA, plan to take the Pharmacy College Admission Test (PCAT) and make application for admission ten months prior to the beginning of study at a school of pharmacy. For additional information, contact the Department of Chemistry, Computer & Physical Sciences. PREPHYSICAL THERAPY To be considered for admission to Physical Therapy programs at most universities, a candidate must (a) have completed 90 hours of pre-professional collegiate credit, with a gradepoint average of at least 2.75; (b) have a minimum grade of “C” in all prerequisite courses; (c) have documenta- Preprofessional Studies 123 tion of observation experience. In addition, the candidate may be required to take the Allied Health Professions Admissions Test (AHPAT). The 90 semester hours should include the following courses: English and Math (four semesters), psychology and/or sociology (three semesters), chemistry (one semester), physics (two semesters), general zoology or introductory biology course for majors (one semester), human physiology (one semester), human anatomy (one semester), medical terminology (one semester) and a science elective (one semester). For additional information, contact the Department of Biological Sciences. PREPHYSICIAN’S ASSOCIATE PROGRAM Requirements for admission to these programs are variable.
