My junior is doing this now, with health classes over the summers to open space up for more science electives.


Anyone with a rigorous schedule is doing Health online either over the summer or the fall semester.

Core courses are the mix of life science, physical science, and lab science. A&P, an upper level life science course, is a part of that.
