Educate yourself on this great summer program in the event that you might like to participate in the summer of 2025
The Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP)
is a free summer program for college freshman and sophomore students to explore their interests in medicine, dentistry, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, physical therapy, public health, and more. The program takes place at our 12 partner institutions and offers students a chance to develop competencies for becoming successful applicants to health profession programs, plan academic journeys, get clinical exposure, and network.
SHPEP scholars have a legacy of success: over 65% of scholars who apply to medical and dental school are accepted and over 78% of students earn advanced degrees.
