Thank you for your email and your continued interest in the Chicago Medical School. For a complete list of application requirements including prerequisite courses please refer to the
Application Requirements. Only the courses listed under prerequisite coursework are required. The courses listed under recommended coursework are not required. There are no guarantees of admission, but if you do not have all of your courses at the time of application, it will not prevent you from being considered as a competitive applicant. However, keep in mind that if accepted all applicants are required to have all of the courses completed by matriculation.
Any outstanding prerequisite courses can be satisfied at a junior college or a community college, just so long as the college is accredited and completed with a grade of C or higher prior to matriculating at CMS. If you have any outstanding prerequisites (or in progress coursework) you will have the opportunity to list them out on your supplemental application that you will have taken and completed them prior to matriculation to still be considered competitively.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Have a great rest of your day.

Yes, WASC is one of the CHEA approved accrediting organizations. Below are the requirements for our prerequisites. If you are taking course work at an accelerated pace, you may want to speak with someone that has taken that approach to medical school course prerequisites and ask how they did with the MCAT exam and preparation for medical school. We wish you well as you pursue your academic goals. Sincerely, Jason
http://www.kumc.edu/school-of-medicine/education/admissions/premedical-requirements.html
Prior to matriculation, applicants to the School of Medicine must have earned a bachelor's degree from a four-year college or university accredited by a CHEA-approved accreditation body. While the bachelor's degree may be earned in any discipline, the applicant is expected to take coursework that demonstrates the requisite intellectual discipline and analytical and problem-solving skills necessary to succeed in medical school. Specific courses required for admission to KU School of Medicine are listed below. Courses taken to meet the biology and chemistry prerequisites must be courses required of science majors and equivalent to one academic year. Modern physics courses must be based on mathematics of at least the level of college algebra and trigonometry, and equivalent to one academic year. Science prerequisites require in-person laboratories; labs cannot be fulfilled by online courses.
Washington University School of Medicine
Making the decision on where
to take the course requirements is a personal decision and we do not advise on where they should or should not be taken. Our only requirement is that they are in the field of study, i.e. Chemistry, Biological Science, Math, Physics. Any courses you take that do not fall within these specified field of study would have to be approved by the dean.
