Who will I meet with during Pre-Health Advising?

Our Health professions advisors are here to assist pre-health students in preparing for the application process to health professional schools. They are trained in both health professions advising and career coaching. It's never too early or too late to meet with a health professions advisor.

Our pre-health ambassadors are highly involved undergraduate leaders who can recommend extracurriculars, share their experiences working or volunteering for local health organizations, discuss class pre-requisites, graduate school testing prep, and more.
