Certificate Overview
Fairfield University offers a Post-Baccalaureate Pre-Health (PBPH) certificate program that helps students become qualified to apply to medical schools. The PBPH certificate is for students who have not previously prepared to become competitive applicants for medical school matriculation. PBPH applicants have already earned undergraduate degrees in any discipline, but have not yet taken the many science and math courses required to qualify for medical school admission. The certificate program is not an applicant “strengthening” program and does not accept students intending to retake math and science courses to improve their GPA.
