Some School of Health Sciences programs have additional requirements beyond those needed to enter AACC.

The following information is only for students applying to Health Science programs that require an additional application.

1. Attend an Information Session

The first step in applying to a Health Sciences program is to attend an information session. Some programs offer virtual sessions or in-person sessions. Other programs offer both virtual and in-person sessions.

Attending an information session is strongly recommended. For some programs, attendance at an information session is required before submitting an application. Information sessions are informal and cover admission and academic requirements, the application and selection process, curriculum and career opportunities. Sessions run 60 to 90 minutes and are conducted by the program faculty. For your attendance to count, you must attend the session for the entire amount of time that it is conducted. Signing in late will not count.
