The Pre-Veterinary program is designed to prepare students for further study in becoming Veterinarians. Pre-professional programs are areas of academic interest (not a major) for students who intend to enter a professional school after graduation with their bachelor’s degree from Eastern.  Students must still select a major while also pursing a pre-professional program.  Identifying the pre-professional program will enable the student's pre-professional advisor at Eastern to provide the student with a wide range of support to realize his or her next step of graduate school and vocation.

Pre-occupational therapy education provides students with a sound background in the natural and social sciences necessary for admission to an occupational therapy program. Essentially, it involves a defined set of pre-requisite courses.  Eastern University intentionally does not have a formal “Pre-Occupational Therapy” major. Instead, the pre-requisite courses are incorporated within the course work required of other majors, such as biology, psychology, athletic training and exercise science. This allows students to obtain knowledge and skills in an area that will allow them to obtain a job related to their major, if, for whatever reason, graduate school attendance needs to be deferred. A degree in “pre-occupational therapy” or “allied health” limits the scope of what one can do upon graduation.

Pre-physical therapy education provides students with a sound background in the natural and social sciences necessary for admission to a physical therapy program. Essentially, it involves a defined set of pre-requisite course. Eastern University intentionally does not have a formal “Pre-Physical Therapy” major. Instead, the pre-requisite courses are incorporated within the course work required of other majors, such as biology and exercise science. This allows students to obtain knowledge and skills in an area that will allow them to obtain a job related to their major, if, for whatever reason, graduate school attendance needs to be deferred. A degree in “pre- physical therapy” or “allied health” limits the scope of what one can do upon graduation.

The Pre-Physician Assistant program is designed to prepare students for further study in becoming Physician Assistants (PAs). Pre-professional programs are areas of academic interest (not a major) for students who intend to enter a professional school after graduation with their bachelor’s degree from Eastern.  Students must still select a major while also pursing a pre-professional program.  Identifying the pre-professional program will enable the student's pre-professional advisor at Eastern to provide the student with a wide range of support to realize his or her next step of graduate school and vocation.
