Applying to Professional Schools
The procedure for applying to professional schools (law, medicine, pharmacy, etc.), is relatively similar to those for applying to graduate school. Provided below is additional information specific to law and medical schools.
 

Law School:

Applying to Professional Schools
  • Make an appointment with Dave Leibig, the Pre-Law Advisor in CSO by calling 610-519-4060.
  • The LSAT (Law School Admission Test) is required by most law schools. LSAT information, application materials and the LSDAS (Law School Data Assembly Service) is found in the Law Services Information Book (LSIB). Instructions in this handbook need to be followed thoroughly. Students need to register with LSDAS.
  • Utilize the law literature in the CSO library.
  • Join the student run Pre-Law Society
  • Sit in on a class at Villanova's Law School

Medical School:

ALUMNI ADVICE:
Get the inside scoop from people who made it through the graduate school application process.

  • Students interested in medical school should speak with Dr. John Friede, Biology Professor/Pre-Med Advisor (118 Mendel, 610-519-4833)
  • Begin the process as early as possible!!
  • Most programs in medicine require the MCAT (Medical College Admission Test.)
  • Consult the medical school information found in the CSO's library.
