Abstract	Many medical schools offer pre-professional programs to undergraduate students. The main purpose of the university pre-professional program (UPPP) is to equip students with the necessary knowledge and skills required to successfully cope with the academic demands of further education provided by professional colleges. The aim of this commentary article is to describe the role of UPPP at King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences (KSAU-HS) in preparing students to continue studies at the College of Medicine (COM) and other health-related colleges. The anatomy and physiology course is presented as a representative model. An outline of the UPPP in the context of the curriculum, teaching strategies, learning facilities, and assessment is presented. The pre-professional program at KSAU-HS prepares school graduates to become self-learners and enable them to learn effectively in the clinical context in a problem-based learning curriculum at COM.
