Greetings,
My name
is Tracy Kovach, and I am a third year student at the School of Medicine here
at UVA. I just wanted to let you know about the Pre-Med Mentoring Program, an
opportunity that is being offered to UVa undergrad students interested in
pursuing a career in medicine. Undergraduates will be paired up with
a current medical student to use as a resource to talk about medical school and
becoming a physician. We hope to dissolve the myths associated with medical
school, as well as provide encouragement and opportunities to learn more about
the professional field. In addition to medical students providing “as-needed”
support, we also hope to have an event in the fall and in the spring, as well
as updates about community service opportunities.
The
application process is easy and simply involves getting your responses to a
short list of questions which will help us gauge your needs and interests.
Please use the following SurveyMonkey link to respond to the application
questions: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/P87XCWK.
We will
be accepting applications until September 22nd. After that, you will receive an
email with your mentor match. Please email uvapremedmentoring@gmail.com with
any questions you may have. We look forward to hearing from you!
Best,
Tracy
