ROSS UNIVERSITY 4+4 MEDICINE Gannon University, in affiliation with Ross University School of Medicine (RUSM) located on the island of Dominica in the Caribbean, offers a program for qualified students to earn a four-year bachelor’s degree from Gannon University and a Medical Doctor (M.D.) degree from RUSM. The traditional 4+4 program grants academically strong students an opportunity to complete a bachelor’s degree in biology or chemistry prior to attending RUSM. Participation in the program alleviates much of the cost of applying to medical schools, while providing a strong background in scientific and biomedical courses at Gannon University. Students enrolled in the program are given priority consideration when they apply to RUSM, including a guaranteed admissions interview. GU Undergraduate Entry Requirements • Completion of four years of science courses at the high school level (biology and chemistry courses are required, while physics is highly recommended) • Completion of four years of math courses at the high school level
