The following guide lists acceptable courses that meet the prerequisite requirements for the ND program. This list is updated annually in the fall; however, these courses are subject to change. If you have any questions about a specific course, please contact an admissions advisor by calling either (425) 602-3332 (Kenmore campus) or (858) 246-9700 (San Diego campus).
Please also note the following:
- Although the ND program accepts no more than two general chemistry courses as prerequisites, most schools require that a full year (3 quarters or 2 semesters) of general chemistry be taken before the first organic chemistry course. We do not list the third general chemistry course offered at quarter-system schools.
- The courses listed below do not include biochemistry, but a science-major level biochemistry course may be taken instead of a second organic chemistry course.
- Psychology courses are not included since Introduction to Psychology is easy to identify and is offered at most colleges and universities.
