The Comprehensive Studies Program (CSP) is partnering with Kaplan to offer test preparation courses for the Dental Admission Examination (DAT), Graduate Record Examination (GRE), Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT), and Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) for a limited number of CSP students for the 2026 Winter term.
Admission to the test prep program is by application only. Selected students will participate in Kaplan's live, synchronous online courses and receive course materials at no cost to them. Students must commit to attending each specified session date and keeping accurately recorded attendance with their designated Kaplan instructor. This information will be requested by CSP. Recipients agree to share their practice scores with CSP’s Coordinator of Supplemental Instruction upon completion of the course.
Applications for Winter 2026 test prep are open from December 10th, 2025 and close on January 11th, 2026 at 11:59pm. Late applications will not be accepted.
For all questions and inquiries regarding the CSP Kaplan Test Prep Program or the application process, please email csp-tutoring@umich.edu.
