“MedPrep I and II gave me
great understanding of the application process and how
to become a competitive applicant. “
MedPrep I and II participant
“Being a nontraditional applicant, I
had a lot of questions that simply
couldn't be answered by reading a
book. The small group and one-on-
one interactions with faculty, staff,
and students of the medical school
gave me the information I needed
to determine that applying to medical
school was the right decision for me.”
MedPrep I and II participant
“Med Prep I offered me valuable information about
the details of the best way to make me a prime candidate
for medical school.” MedPrep I participant “MedPrep was very informative on the actual values the
student should have in order to become a physician that
will provide optimal patient-centered care.” MedPrep I and II participant
