You should have all prerequisites completed by December 2022. You are permitted to have one final prerequisite to be taken during the 2023 spring semester. If you have more than 1 outstanding prerequisite class yet to take after the December 2022 academic update your application will be considered incomplete and will not move forward. Please make sure you list all classes being taken in the Fall of 2022 and Spring of 2023 as "in progress" in PTCAS or we will be unable to see that you are taking or planning to take these classes and you application will appear incomplete. Anatomy/physiology prerequisites must be taken within the last 5 years. There is no expiration date on the other prerequisite classes that meet the acceptable course, credit and lab criteria listed below. Pass/Fail or CR/NC options are NOT acceptable for any of the prerequisite courses except if they were taken in the Spring and Summer 2020 semesters. We will accept pass, credit and satisfactory grades for prerequisite courses taken in Spring and Summer 2020 semesters for prerequisite requirements. If you are trying to use Advanced Placement credits for a prerequisite class, please contact us so we can verify that it meets the specific class requirements and is listed appropriately on your transcript. Use the highest course grade possible for your prerequisite selection. You may substitute a higher-level class for the prerequisite as long as you have taken the lower level required class. As an example: you took Chemistry 1 + lab (4 cr.) your sophomore year and earned a B. Your junior year you took biochemistry + lab (4 cr.) a higher-level chemistry that had a prerequisite requirement of Chemistry 1 and you earned an A. You may use that higher-level chemistry class with the A, to match our prerequisites. Select the highest grade earned on all classes you have may have retaken. If you attend an institution that follow a quarter curriculum (4 terms per year fall, winter, spring and summer each lasting 11-12 weeks) then you need to verify in PTCAS that you have met the credit requirements for our prerequisites. For example: We require 2 4-credit semester long Anatomy/Physiology classes with labs. 4 semester credits = 6 quarter credits so to meet our Anatomy/Physiology prerequisite requirements you must have taken 12 quarter credits of A/P. You can do this by taking 3 sequential quarter A/P classes or combine 3 related anatomy/physiology quarter classes to equal 12 quarter credits. Please review your selected prerequisites. We will only accept/override the 0.33 credit deficiency (3 quarter credits = 2.67 semester credits) for 3-credit quarter psychology and statistics prerequisite classes. All other prerequisite requirements must meet the semester credit requirements
