Postbacc Program
Your Accessible Path to Healthcare Graduate School: Edmonds College Post-baccalaureate
Are you dreaming of a healthcare career? Edmonds College is thrilled to introduce a Post-Baccalaureate program specifically designed to make graduate school — including medicine, dentistry, pharmacy, physician assistant studies, and physical therapy — more accessible than ever.
The Postbacc program at Edmonds was created by people who worked in healthcare, were on Admissions Committees, and are passionate about sharing their expertise. The community here is designed to mirror a clinical setting, where everyone works together toward a common goal, is supportive, and shares a strong sense of belonging.
The program's flexibility allows you to start any quarter and enroll in the exact number of prerequisite classes you need. With options to complete coursework fully online, hybrid, or in person, the program accommodates a wide range of schedules.
The curriculum is designed to teach the precise soft skills that graduate schools are looking for. The program also provides guidance to help you understand what to expect and how to find extracurriculars that will fit your already busy schedules.
For a fee of just $65 per quarter, you will receive:
- Quarterly Guest Speakers: A diverse group of providers, patients, current graduate students, and social service agencies discuss the social determinants of health.
- Unique Program Opportunities: Access to exclusive mentoring and community partnerships, which significantly strengthens applications.
- MCAT Test Preparation: MCAT preparation and proctored practice testing: Discounts for MCAT preparation products, connections to tutors, and on site proctored MCAT practice testing is available.
- Application & Essay Workshops: Assistance with the application process and essay writing, all taught by former Admissions Committee members.
- A Strong Community: A supportive online and in-person Postbacc community with quarterly check-ins.
- A Detailed Certificate of Completion: A final certificate that validates you have obtained the soft skills needed for success in medical, dental, PA, PT/OT programs, and beyond.
We're committed to breaking down barriers to your healthcare dreams. Discover how Edmonds College makes a career in medicine achievable.

"I had my white coat ceremony yesterday, and I wouldn’t have made it here without Julie's long time support. She not only gave me opportunities to connect with and serve underserved communities, but also equipped me with skills that I will carry with me throughout my journey as a physician. She believed in me and helped me become a stronger person than I was the very first day we met."
