Prehealth Advising
Prehealth Advising at Penn State is available to any student in any major at any campus across the University, as well as to alumni who would like to explore, prepare, and apply for training in a health-professions career, including medicine, podiatry, dentistry, optometry, pharmacy, physician assistant, and other allied health professions.
Prehealth SharePoint
This Prehealth Advising SharePoint website is the home to many resources to support students on their journey into the health professions.
Upcoming Events
Focusing on prehealth group-advising sessions, these events cover broader topics ranging from a health-professions overview to workshops developing a personal statement.
Prehealth Podcast
The Prehealth Podcast at Penn State was developed to help all prehealth students on their journey to acceptance.
Current Penn State students who wish to schedule a meeting with an adviser need to obtain a prehealth referral in Starfish. A referral is awarded by attending a group advising session or by watching a recording of the session and completing a reflection (currently through SharePoint).
The Prehealth Advising team is here to help you on your journey to becoming the health-care provider you wish to be. Each student's journey is their own and unlike any other student's. We hope these resources are helpful, and desire to meet with you individually to discuss your specific needs and path.
