Academic Planning for Naturopathic Medical School

Attending an accredited naturopathic medical program is the first step toward pursuing a rewarding career in naturopathic medicine. Below are essential steps to plan for naturopathic medical school:

The Academic Plan

Prerequisites vary somewhat from school to school, but generally speaking, future students should ensure that they have taken the required pre-medical courses, including biology and chemistry. In addition to chemistry and biology, most ND schools require the completion of a psychology/counseling course as well; the MCAT is not required for admission. Successful naturopathic medical students come from a variety of undergraduate disciplines; there is no “best degree” to pursue as an undergraduate as long as you earn your bachelor’s degree.

The Financial Plan

The cost of naturopathic medical school is similar to other higher education degrees. Students must factor in personal expenses, and while some students are able to work part-time through school, it is not recommended to rely on that income as a main source for financing your education. The academic workload is a full-time commitment in itself and demands focused attention.

Evidence-Based Integrative Medicine and Public Health

The Canadian Integrative Medicine Association, CIMA, is an organization representing doctors from a variety of medical disciplines including conventional Western medical therapies. Research from the group reveals that Vitamin C, Vitamin D3 and zinc can help to prevent and treat Covid-19. Such research supports the commitment to university-standard education and evidence-based natural medicine.
