The MIT Prehealth Fair is an excellent way to meet and connect with representatives from medical schools and programs around the country. In addition to attending the 2019 PHF, you can explore if Prehealth is right for you in the following ways: email us at prehealth at mit.edu<mailto:prehealth at mit.edu> and request to be added to the Prehealth email list; come to drop in sessions which are every Tuesday during the semester 11AM-1PM in E17-294;  check out our spring events, all of which are listed on CareerBridge and in the attached flyer; and consider scheduling an appointment on CareerBridge with one of our Prehealth Advisors.
Featured Presentations at the 2019 PHF:
•        10:05-10:45 UMASS: What is Holistic Review?? - An understanding of holistic review and professionalism competencies and their importance to the applicant in crafting an application for UMass School of Medicine. UMMS students are able to individualize their medical education through participation in a variety of pathways and programs.

•        10:50-11:20 ICAHN: FlexMed Program - The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (ISMMS) is the first medical school in the country to create a progressive admissions approach for students who seek early assurance of admission. FlexMed allows college sophomores in any major, from any undergraduate institution, to apply for early assurance of acceptance to ISMMS. Once accepted, students are free to pursue their studies unencumbered by the traditional science requirements and the MCAT. Join us for the presentation to learn more about the program, learn about the application process, and learn about what ISMSM is looking for in applicants.

The Georgetown University Special Master's Program is the oldest program of its kind in the country, and the curriculum includes the majority of the M1 medical courses. Our students are graded against the medical students on the same exams, and this rigorous academic environment sets our students up for success in medical school and beyond. Go Physios!
