All applicants must take an entrance exam and pass with a minimum score. This requirement may be waived for applicants, except in California, with official academic transcripts or certificate showing proof of completion of an associate’s degree or higher. All medical degree and certificate applicants must be interviewed prior to acceptance.
Although it is not required as part of the admission requirements, students may request that their ACT score be sent to PMI.
