or health professions school. Areas of concentration include:

Prehealth Advising
Each field listed above has distinct requirements. Students should work with their
prehealth advisor to ensure that they reach their goals. In addition to academic advising
and assistance with professional school applications, we provide seminars, workshops
and on-campus recruitment visits. We can also connect students with research internships
and external summer programs.
