The Premedical Sciences years of the Premed/MD Program incorporate basic undergraduate courses in reading, writing and mathematics with the necessary science foundation courses for a well-rounded education. The Premedical Sciences
curriculum is designed to give a firm foundation for the accelerated, advanced studies offered later in the Medical Sciences
years (MD Program).
This is a rewarding program for highly motivated students, which involves four semesters of focused pre-medical studies. This program prepares students for the 4 year MD Program.
Our typical high school graduates tend to be prepared for residency before the age of 23.
Premed coursework done at Xavier University School of Medicine, Bonaire, allows its students to be qualified candidates for medical licensure in the United States.
