Pre-med Track, Early Admission: By participating in the Biology-Early Entry program as a pre-med student, you will gain early acceptance to Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences–College of Osteopathic Medicine (KCU-COM) by the end of your sophomore year and have a reserved seat in medical school after completing your junior year of courses at Evangel University. In this program you are not required to take the MCAT exam, forgo your final year of undergraduate work, and start medical school during your fourth year. Upon completion of the fourth year of schooling, you will receive a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Evangel University, and then complete the Doctor of Osteopathy (DO) degree in three more years.
