The bachelor's degree/M.D. program, offered jointly by Livingston
College and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New
Jersey-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, permits selected students to
earn a bachelor's degree and medical degree in eight years of study.
Students are selected for this program at the conclusion of their
sophomore year and are granted provisional admission into the medical
school. A second review of the student's credentials during the fourth
year of the program is required to qualify for formal admission to the
medical school. In the junior year, students begin to take medical
science courses along with courses in fulfillment of their
undergraduate degree. The bachelor's degree is usually awarded by the
end of the fifth year and the medical degree by the end of the eighth
year. Also available are an articulated bachelor's degree/M.D. program
with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-New Jersey
Medical School and a bachelor's degree/doctor of dental medicine
program with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-New
Jersey Dental School.
