Bost Bac Question

[BSBD1012]

Hello, I was kindly directed over to this forum. I graduated from Tulane University with a very low undergraduate GPA (2.89) with a BA in communications and a minor in business. After being out of school for a couple years I realized that medical school would be a challenging and rewarding goal to set for myself. I did not take any pre-med requisites in college and am interested in going back to school for them. I looked into numerous post-bac programs but all of the ones I researched require at least a 3.0 undergrad gpa. Would it be better for me to go back to take pre-med courses seperatly then apply to a masters program of some sort. Or are there any post-bacc programs for non-science graduates that don't require at least a 3.0 gpa?

Thank you!

Over the past three years, the one thing that I have learned is that this process is complicated and each non-trad route is unique. How you might best proceed will depend on a lot of factors unique to your situation that I suspect to you wouldn't necessarily wish to post on an open forum. If you are still near Tulane, call up the pre-med advising office and ask for an appointment. If you are not still in N.O., you can still set up a phone call with one of the advisers.

Good luck.
