Meet Alexa Ariazi

"I knew I was going to need to work while completing the program, and Drexel’s PMED program is one of the few post-baccs that have evening classes, allowing you to work full time during the day [...] I was hoping to join a program where you could get to know the faculty and be in a smaller class size, which is the case with PMED."

Meet Abigail McKnight

"The disparity of health care in poorer countries, such as St. Vincent, sparked a new passion that simply grew over time. This energy was refocused into a desire to serve the community by becoming a doctor. After extensive research, I immediately gravitated to the College of Medicine’s post-baccalaureate pre-medical program. Their mission to assist underrepresented communities and increase involvement in the field of medicine aligned perfectly with my goals and aspirations." Read Abigail's story.

"I had been a practicing dental hygienist long enough to know I wanted to return to school to continue my education to become a dentist. The Drexel Evening Post-baccalaureate Pre-medical program offered all the pre-requisites I would need to apply to dental programs and was centrally located to my job and home at the time. I also had a friend that attended the Evening Post-baccalaureate Pre-medical program at Drexel and spoke very highly of the faculty and curriculum." Read Kelly's story.

Meet Alum Samuel Lee

"I am a Maryland native with a Bachelor of Arts in economics from Emory University. I've always wanted to be a dentist, and Drexel's Evening Post-baccalaureate Pre-medical Program has helped me achieve my goal. I successfully completed the program last May and my experience in this program was very positive. I especially enjoyed the small class size, the opportunity to work or volunteer during the day, and the supportive staff and professors. I'm very excited to attend the University of Maryland School of Dentistry next fall thanks to the training and education I received from Drexel."
