We serve pre-health students, from current undergraduate students to nontraditional students.

From the undergraduate student just getting their feet wet to the nontraditional student pursuing a health professional career later in life, HPSA aims to assist underserved students in their educational journey.

Becoming a healthcare professional is an arduous journey that requires prospective students to complete many hurdles. Being a successful applicant requires more than good grades and test scores. Students need to complete volunteering and public service, shadowing, and potentially research. We provide resources to underserved students that maximize their admission chances to health professional schools. We work tirelessly to ensure all students have access to reliable information and the resources they need to be successful healthcare professional students. 

Take a look at some of the many resources we provide.
