For the pre-medical and general sciences certificate program, you can apply to and establish candidacy at any time (spring, summer, fall, or winter quarter). For this certificate, students may also enroll in courses at any time without having first established candidacy, and the courses taken pre-candidacy would count towards the program should you choose to enroll. Establishing candidacy means:
