Applying to Professional School

Are you ready to apply? This is not always an easy question to answer. The process of applying to a health professions school is long and requires a significant amount of time as well as both emotional and financial investment. It is important to consider the decision carefully and be sure you are a strong candidate. As you reflect on your candidacy, here are a few things to ask yourself:

  • Have you participated in activities that have informed your decision that this career is the right fit for you?
  • Do your activities and experiences you have show your readiness for both professional school and the profession?
  • If you were on an admissions committee and reviewed your application, would it be clear that you are well prepared?

If you can answer yes to these questions, then it is likely time to apply. Go to our Apply pages to learn about the resources we have to support you at this step of the process.
