Second Undergrad


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I need some guidance-questions answered.

I graduated from UWO with a Bachelor of Science and received a poor GPA. At the time I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life and I did not have an interest in school. I graduated and took a year off.

 

After a year I realized I would give health care a try. I went to College, graduated with a 4.1 GPA in respiratory therapy and am a practicing RRT. I have a great amount of volunteer work, a lot of extracurriculars, I tutor, and work with all age groups currently.

 

Now that I am aware of my potential and have a better understanding of what I want to do with my life, I've made the decision that medical school is what I want to pursue. I am dedicated, determined and disciplined enough for it. I will be writing my MCAT this summer as well.

 

I want to return to uwo because I know the only way Schulich will accept me is with a better GPA. I want to take a second undergrad. Here comes the question:

 

Since I took my first undergraduate degree in biology would I be able to take my second undergraduate degree in something similar such as health sciences? If so, do I simply reapply online through OUAC? I have contacted admissions multiple times and somehow I'm still not getting my questions answered.

 

I want to know if anyone else has taken this route to enter medical school before and if they have any advice. Thanks in advance!
