ATTENTION ALL FIRST YEAR PRE-HEALTH STUDENTS

Welcome to your first year at Carolina on the path to a rewarding career in the health professions! To ensure you get the best possible start and make the most of your health professions advising experience, we ask all first-year students (even if you are coming in with credits) to attend one of the “So You Want A Career In Health Professions” Group Advising sessions (offered in the Fall semester) and meet with our dedicated Health Professions Advising (HPA) Peer Guides (available both Fall and Spring semesters) BEFORE scheduling an appointment with a Health Professions Advisor.

These sessions are designed to provide you with valuable insights, answer your initial questions, and help you navigate the exciting road ahead. Once you’ve completed this crucial first step, our team of experienced health professions advisors will be eagerly waiting to guide you further on your path to success. So, take that first step, connect with our knowledgeable peer guides, and let’s embark on this transformative journey together. Welcome to the world of health professions advising!
