Continue checking in with a Pre-Health Advisor once a semester to touch base about your progress, get any questions you might have
answered, etc.
Continue maintaining relationships with professors, mentors, advisors, etc.
Meet with a Career Advisor to discuss parallel planning. This will help you to understand what additional career
options you might be interested in, and how to prepare for them, should you decide
to change your intended career path.
Academics
Continue maintaining a strong GPA across your classes. Continue to use professor/TA
office hours as a resource to stay on top of your classes. Student Success Advising, offered through the College of Natural Science, is another great resource to assist
you with effective learning strategies, studying strategies, test-taking strategies,
time management, and much more!
Work with your major & Pre-Health Advisors to develop a long-term plan of classes
that includes requirements for your major and intended career path
Continue to reflect on whether you are enjoying the classes you are taking for your
major, and whether you would like to continue with your chosen major. If you would
like to explore other major options, meet with advisors from majors you are interested
in to learn more about requirements/opportunities within those major programs.
Cocurricular Experiences
Continue participating in meaningful activities (e.g., working, volunteering, job
shadowing, internships, etc.) that provide you with exposure and experience related
to your chosen profession.
Continue keeping track of and reflecting on experiences. It is important to not only
reflect on what you have accomplished and what you have learned from your experiences,
but also on whether you have enjoyed the experiences you have had and whether your
chosen career path continues to be a good fit.
Continue to participate in any experiences that you enjoy, even if they are not directly
related to health/medicine.
