Health Track: Pre-Health Consultations

WHAT ARE PRE-HEALTH CONSULTATIONS?
One-on-One Pre-health Consultations are premium opportunities to meet one-on-one with a health profession school's admission representative to:

--discuss your overall preparation for a given health career;
--learn about a specific school or program; and
--gauge your competitiveness if you were to apply there.

Whether you are a first or second year student looking for advice on how tobest prepare for a certain health career, or an upper division student or recent graduate gearing up to apply or currently applying, you will gain valuable insights from your participation in these consultations. Consultations can also be very valuable if you are reconsidering your career plans and/or are in the process of exploring more options in the health field. At the request of the schools' representatives, students are asked NOT to sign up for a consultation with a school where they are CURRENTLY applying.
