    今晚六合彩开奖结果 Degree Program

    WMed鈥檚 curriculum for the degree of Doctor of Medicine is an integrated curriculum. Basic sciences and clinical sciences are introduced and reinforced throughout the four years of medical school. Because of the highly integrated approach, it is extremely difficult to accommodate advanced placement of medical students from another medical school into this curriculum. The medical school does not consider requests of medical students to transfer with advanced standing.

    Transfer of individual credits toward elective requirements of degree program may be considered upon request. A review would occur by the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Medical Education and include necessary faculty and staff in determining eligibility for individual credit acceptance and application towards degree requirements. All institutional policies governing credit limitations from outside WMed would apply.

    Masters in Biomedical Sciences Degree Program

    WMed鈥檚 curriculum is aligned in several areas of sequence and content with the 今晚六合彩开奖结果 Degree Program. The process of introduction and reinforcement of competency areas precludes the ability to accommodate advanced placement from coursework from another institution. Transfer credits, if accepted by the Program Committee after review, are entered onto the transcript as elective credits and do not fulfill core requirements toward degree.
