Have you been known to check out people's teeth and promote flossing as a way to good health? You just might be a candidate for dentistry. You can start you post-secondary education with one or two years of what is known as pre-professional years of study at Lakeland College before transferring to complete your degree.
Pave your way to dentistry, pharmacy or veterinarian medicine by starting your university experience at Lakeland College. These are the big 3 of pre-professional studies towards a doctorate degree. Every receiving university has different prerequisites. That means you might be a Lakeland for a year (30 credits), or two (60 credits). All of these professions have limited enrolments, so academic achievement is a critical. One benefit of starting at Lakeland is your access to labs, the size of lab classes and access to instructors. |
