"The college has seen a significant rise in its students' gaining admission into prestigious medical schools, demonstrating the caliber of education it provides," said Dr. Channapatna Prakash, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. "The journey to professional medical programs is rigorous and challenging, with only a tiny fraction of college graduates making the cut."

To credit, Tuskegee has enhanced the academic rigor of our premedical program to ensure our students are optimally prepared. Annual boot camps target the medical college application process, giving students a comprehensive understanding of what to expect. Tuskegee students also benefit from extensive MCAT test tutoring, equipping them with the necessary skills to perform well.

Through Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs), Tuskegee has secured an advantage for students, including Early Assurance Programs, scholarships, guaranteed interviews, and college visits. The university has also established partnerships with numerous leading medical colleges nationwide. These partnerships are reinforced by regular campus visits from medical college recruiters who engage directly with our students.

"Our alumni, many of whom are successful medical professionals, also play an instrumental role in mentoring our students, providing them with valuable shadowing and internship opportunities," said Dr. Prakash. "We also facilitate a robust premedical club, the Minority Association of Pre-Med Students, which hosts weekly meetings featuring a range of professional activities."

Dr. Prakash further notes that Tuskegee University prides itself on cultivating a culture of success. We celebrate each student's achievements, fostering an environment encouraging persistence and excellence. This multi-faceted approach is why more Tuskegee University students are making their mark in the medical field.
