Graduate School Preparation Exams

All undergraduate juniors and senior students pursuing professional health, graduate school, and law school should be working with a pre-health, pre-law, or business advisor when considering preparation. Students requesting entrance exam prep have access to Kaplan prep products for 12 months. Therefore, students must ensure they are ready to test and apply to their respective programs within those 12 months. The DSU Office of URELAH will pay for one graduate exam prep course in the junior or senior year. All registrants must be currently enrolled at Delaware State University as a junior or senior.

Please follow the guidelines below:

DAT: students must be enrolled in or have completed Organic Chemistry II with BIO I/II and CHEM I/II.

GMAT: Recommended only for senior business students pursuing competitive b-school admissions. Determine if you need this exam based on schools you are applying to.

GRE: Recommended between junior and senior year only when applying to graduate programs that require the exam. (All PA and Veterinary programs require the GRE; most OT and PT programs require the GRE.)

LSAT: Junior or senior pre-law students only; recommended that all pre-law applicants completed before September of their application year.

MCAT: Recommended when students have completed BIO I/II, CHEM I/II, OCHEM I/II, PHYS I/II. Students should try to complete the MCAT by June of the year that they are applying.
