Pre-Health and Biology Advising Resources
At Northwestern Health Sciences University, your program of study is designed to fit your individualized goals, and your advisor and instructors will support you at every step.
Your personalized education at Northwestern Health Sciences University begins even before you enroll in your first classes. You meet with Dr. Deal to create an individualized academic schedule to fit your goals. Based on that plan, you are assigned a health professional advisor in your first term.
In your first, hour-long meeting with your advisor, you discuss career goals, academic schedule, and timeline. You are encouraged to schedule this meeting as soon as possible, and to continue your relationship throughout your time in the program. To schedule a meeting, find your advisor in the list below and email them today.
