Students with aspirations of attending medical, dental, or veterinary school are directed toward our B.S. programs in Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Microbiology, or Pharmacology and Toxicology and are well-prepared for medical school. They may combine any of our B.S. programs with our Pre- Med track. USP's faculty and administration are willing and ready to help any student with academic or personal problems. The Academic Success Center and The Writing Center offers tutoring services at no additional expense to the student. The intercollegiate sports for men are basketball, baseball, cross-country, riflery, golf, and tennis.
Women participate in basketball, cross-country, golf, riflery, softball, tennis, and volleyball.
Intramural athletics, religious groups, special interest organizations, newspaper, yearbook, chorus, and drama groups are just a few of the many clubs and organizations USP has to offer. There are eight social and professional fraternities on campus, four of which have fraternity houses. The University has an active Army ROTC program in conjunction with Drexel University, located blocks away from our campus. Students should be enrolled in a college prep program in high school. We place strong emphasis on performance in science, English and math courses along with overall class rank.
