MPA Programs of Study
All Professional programs are programs of study, not majors. Pre-Professional Students must select a major and minor by the time 60 credit hours have been completed. We encourage all Students to strive for the four-year degree, while applying to their Professional School of choice.
Multiple Pre-Health Profession Programs of Study are available at ETSU. The Office of Medical Professions Advisement supports nine of those Programs offered:
• Pre-Chiropractic Medicine
• Pre-Dentistry
• Pre-Medicine
• Pre-Optometry
• Pre-Osteopathic Medicine
• Pre-Pharmacy
• Pre-Physician Assistant/Surgeon Assistant
• Pre-Podiatry
• Pre-Veterinary Medicine
ETSU offers over 100 undergraduate majors from which the Pre-Professional Student may choose. Although many Students pursue a math or science degree, it is not required. Professional Schools look for Students that are well-rounded, which pertains to a Student being socially and professionally competent. For example, while you may major in another field, you will still be a competitive Student as long as you have strong skills and grades in the math and sciences.
