What exactly is a post-baccalaureate program? What kinds of students pursue it?
Michelle Sablan (MS): A post-baccalaureate program consists of courses focused on a particular discipline that are taken after a bachelors degree has been earned. Specific to Imi Hoola, no degree is awarded, but a certificate of completion is given along with admission to the John A. Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM). Students who enter Imi are usually from disadvantaged backgrounds that have demonstrated potential as future physicians. Imi provides an opportunity for students who have had difficulty gaining admission to medical school.
