CGS Students: What has your experience been?

Hi! I was recently accepted in the CGS program at BU (planning on eventually matriculating into Sargent College with a major in Behavior & Health) but I’ve been finding a lot of conflicting info on the CGS program as a whole. I was hoping to find and contact some actual CGS students and hopefully hear their thoughts on the program having gone through it. On a side note I do plan on going pre-med so if anyone has any experience with CGS and pre-med that would be greatly appreciated. I’m in no way committed to BU as of right now, but it’s definitely one of my top schools so any extra information would be awesome! Thank you!

Hi! I’m a CGS alum. I loved my time at CGS and found it incredibly helpful. In terms of specific questions regarding your major and coursework definitely reach out to CGS via email and they can put you in touch with current students! I will say though, that I have had many friends who were pre-med in CGS and have not only completed the necessary coursework but done very well and are on track to graduate with the rest of our class. The key is to always talk to your advisor!
