Interested in borrowing MCAT or DAT prep books completely free? Learn more about applying to our Test Prep Borrowing Program.
Introduction
Preparing for admissions exams like the MCAT and DAT can be expensive, with prep books and resources often running into the hundreds. That’s why George Mason University Health Professions Advising is excited to offer free MCAT or DAT prep books from our library to current students that apply to our borrowing program!
Our Test Prep Borrowing Program operates on an rolling-based system. This means that applications can be submitted at any time and are processed continuously. There are a limited number of books available; thus, all applicants may not be awarded books.
These books are primarily useful for content review; therefore, we strongly suggest incorporating additional resources (see Test Prep Resources) in your study plan to gain more question exposure and strengthen testing stamina.
If you have any questions, please email [email protected].
