Current Students - FAQ

  1. I´ve been accepted to EKU, am I automatically in the program I chose?
    No. If your CARES report reads "pre" before your major then you must be accepted into the major program. Each program accepts applicant´s differently so check with the program of choice for verification.
  2. What is a pre-professional program?
    A pre-professional program is one that you can begin at EKU by completing the general education curriculum, supporting courses and the basic prerequisite courses (and/or completing a degree) before going to a graduate program or professional school.
  3. I´m interested in a pre-professional program (i.e. medicine, physical therapy, etc.). Does EKU have these?
    Yes. The College of Health Sciences at EKU has pre-physical therapy, pre-physician assistant and pre-dental hygiene (Pre-Professional Curricula). Pre-dental, pre-med, and pre-pharmacy are located in the College of Arts & Sciences.
  4. I was not accepted into the program of my choice. What do I do now?
    You may see the College Advisor, Raglena Salmans, to discover other opportunities in the College of Health Sciences at EKU.
