Experiences & Opportunities

As a pre-professional student you should explore, balance, and reflect upon experiences and opportunities. These practices are important to expand your professionalism, experiences, and attributes.

Experience Log 

Track and reflect on all your experiences outside of the classroom, including shadowing, research, health related volunteering, community service, study abroad, campus involvement, internships, and paid employment.

As you participate in these experiences, you are also learning, growing, and changing. By the time you apply, the professional schools expect that you have reflected on your experiences and can articulate what you’ve learned through them.

Use the Experience Log to track and record your pre-health experiences.
