Pre-Health Professional Advisors
The role of the PreHealth Professional Advisor is to provide guidance on your journey to advanced biomedical programs and biomedical jobs. The advisor cannot get you a job or get you into these programs. That is your job! The advisor can advise, make sure you are on track to be a competitive applicant, submit letter of recommendation packets for schools and provide support as you work towards your goals. The advisor will also have difficult conversations with some students about alternative career options. The advisor is here to help you help yourself.
It is important for you as a Biomedical students to meet with either one of the two PreHealth Professional Advisors, Dr. Beth Stotz-Potter or Dr. Amy Keagy, throughout your academic career and during the process of applying to Biomedical Schools.
