I know, but I’ve read that it’s generally advised to have a strong background on biology when you apply. Isn’t it hard to take those courses and still major in something else?

<p>For reference, a typical bachelor’s degree program requires 120 semester hour credit units, or 180 quarter hour credit units. To see if a given major is feasable, just add the following at the undergraduate school:</p>

<p>A. Courses needed to satisfy pre-optometry requirements at the desired optometry school(s).
B. Courses for the desired undergraduate major that do not overlap with A.
C. Undergraduate breadth requirements that do not overlap with A or B.</p>

<p>If the total of A + B + C is less than (or only slight more than) 120 semester hour credit units or 180 quarter hour credit units, then it should be feasable to do that major with pre-optometry.</p>
