Join Health Professions Advising for an intensive, Summer Pre-Med Bootcamp consisting of daily pre-med related workshops featuring HPA advisors, guest speakers and medical professionals! The 2026 program will take place Monday through Friday from July 6th - 28th.
Application systems are open[ing] and applicants will be able to submit soon! Join HPA and accepted health professional students from the 2025 - 2026 application cycle. Applicants come from a variety of health professions and pathways.
Interviews are a crucial component of the application process and are required by the majority of health professional schools. While they can be stressful — whether due to spending long hours on screen or on campus or recalling your most significant experiences — preparation is key to success.
Have you heard you need to submit the first day in order to be early? Think you are done after submitting secondaries? Don’t fall into these application traps and myths! HPA will review common strategies to help you apply early and ready.
Kira, Casper, Duet and AAMC PREview aren't traditional tests. They’re designed to assess your non-academic skills like communication and ethics through hypothetical scenarios. Schools use these situational judgment tests to see how you think on your feet.
Many health professional schools require additional essay questions called secondaries or supplementals. Many allopathic medical schools send secondaries after the primary application is submitted, based on their selection criteria.
Ready to tackle those additional primary health professional school essays? This is an opportunity to provide context to your story and show your ability to overcome barriers.
Come along as Health Professions Advising virtually visits medical schools from across the nation (and a few international schools as well) from March 23rd - 26th!
Your personal statement is an opportunity to convey your motivation to enter a health profession and show schools the value you bring to healthcare through your own narrative. Stuck on how to start writing or how to revise your drafts?
