The percentage in question depends primarily on the student's overall GPA and the student's GPA in his/her science/math courses.With at least a 3.2 in both categories, virtually 100 percent of students applying to professional school are accepted.

Â鶹ÊÓƵ has excellent relations with many professional schools and endeavors to find the professional program best suited for the individual student.However, there are no absolute guarantees. Each professional school has certain GPA requirements, application requirements, and personal interview requirements.Ultimately, the professional school determines whether or not an applicant meets their requirements.

Yes.The rule of thumb is 100 hours shadowing a professional in the student's choice of career.

There are definite advantages to attending such a college/university, but, as stated above, there are no guarantees even at that institution.A student must still make excellent grades. Each student must visit several college campuses and determine which school is "right" for them. Factors to include in the decision as to which school to attend are location (rural vs. urban, proximity to home, etc.), class size for science and mathematics classes, size of the university, campus housing, and cost.
