Pre-Registered Dietitian Pathway

DR. GERALD SCHAFER, PRE-REGISTERED DIETITIAN ADVISOR

The Pre-Registered Dietitian Pathway at Carroll College will prepare students to enter careers that will enhance the nutritional health of their communities. Students will take courses from a variety of subjects that will encourage them to become critical thinkers, compassionate healthcare professionals, and advocates for healthy living. 

Please note that completion of the Pre-Registered Dietitian Pathway does not guarantee that all graduate/professional admission prerequisites have been met, nor does it assure admission into a degree program in the field. Carroll students pursuing this pathway need to work closely with the appropriate pre-professional advisor, as well as the admission office(s) of all prospective graduate/professional programs.
