Schools with Non-Traditional Requirements?

So I know some schools out there have some requirements that are fairly unique (OSU requiring anatomy before the start of school) but I wanted to get a thread dedicated to this. Anyone have input?

I'm surprised A&P isn't already a pre-req for all schools. The only variances I ever seen are just in recommended coursework. Usually its an ethics class or some upper level bio like genetics or embryology.

For some schools, mine included, unless you're in a specific pre PT or other program you're not allowed to take anatomy as an undergrad, so it's not an option. Physiology I am able to take, though.

Nvm, I misunderstood what you were saying.

Anatomy was not a class for undergrads at my school either. Physiology was offered though. I am unsure if you could petition to take the grad level anatomy. Thankfully, OSU is now offering the class online for accepted students, I believe.
