All pre-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.

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.
