The goal of the Health Professions Advising Program at Seton Hall University is to assist students in developing the necessary credentials to gain entrance into post-baccalaureate programs in the health professionals such as medicine, dentistry, and optometry.
 
Although the majority of health professional schools prefer applicants with a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree, occasionally an exceptional student is admitted after completion of three full years of college work.

To fit these pre-requisites into the student's major and overall academic schedule, the pre-health professions student must seek advising each semester for preregistration of courses from the faculty advisor dedicated to each program. 

• Roberta Moldow, Ph.D., director and chair of the Health Professions Advisory Committee, advises students as to their academic preparation (link sheets) as well as other necessary components such as shadowing, volunteering and research experiences. Interested students are encouraged to contact Dr. Moldow at roberta.moldow@shu.edu to arrange for an appointment.
