The Health Professions Mentoring (HPM) Program is designed to prepare students for admission to medical school through an enriched curriculum as well as academic and professional mentoring. HPM will prepare students to be competitive applicants to any medical school of their choice upon completion of their bachelor’s degree.
Additional benefits include:
Admission to the HPM Program is by invitation only. The Office of Undergraduate Admission will identify eligible students through their UM application. Invitations to participate will be sent to applicants with their general UM admission notification. Eligibility is determined by an applicant's choice of major and interest in pre-health professions.
The University employs a holistic review process to assess applicants’ readiness for the HPM Program. Factors influencing admission to the HPM Program include:
Strong achievements in science and math courses, strong letters of recommendation, a compelling essay, extracurricular activities, and awards/achievements are also reviewed.
