Hi Alli,
If you're interested in attending Soka, and then ultimately going on to Veterinary school, one suggestion is to begin the search for a Vet school, in order to find their admission requirements. Then compare to see if Soka offers any of those classes. You may find some classes you'll need that Soka does not offer, meaning you'll have to ... See Moretake them during summer or winter break outside of Soka, at your own expense.

Thank you for question and I think I remember you came to visit us last fall. We appreciate it!

Soka students are able to think outside of the box and express themselves creatively, but they also learn to adhere to guidelines, which are set for everyone to have an equal opportunity.

Try your best to be within the 300-word limit. The challenge in this requirement is in your ability to express your character, opinion, thoughts, and personality down to the essence of what makes You a unique individual. Thank you for your question Lara!

We would strongly recommend that you update as many portions of your application as you are able. As for your transcripts, if you completed high school since the last time you applied, we will need a new transcript that includes your senior year grades and any subsequent college work you might have done. If not, then we do not need a new transcript. Again, we would strongly recommend that you update your application in order to reflect the year that has gone by since last applying.

Thank you so much for your reply :D

Thank you so much for your reply once again. May I ask whether do I need to ask my teacher to rewrite my letter of recommendation as I had submit to SUA last year during my last applying?

Soka does not offer a specific pre-law program. What we do offer are multiple courses in political science, political thought, government, and United States history. Therefore, we have courses to prepare our students for law school, despite not having a program or degree in pre-law.

To look more depth at our course offering, please see our course catalog on our website, www.soka.edu, under Office of the Registrar.
