The Pre-Health Portfolio Workshop/Chat is scheduled for Monday, November 23rd, 7-745 p.m., in the "Living Room" area outside of the Career Services Office (near the mailroom). Roberta Cross, from the Career Services Office, along with three senior pre-health students that have applied to health professions schools this year will bring along examples of their portfolios and will answer questions and provide advice about putting together a high quality portfolio. We held this more "informal" meeting last year, and we've heard from students that it was very successful. Although this meeting is intended primarily for juniors and seniors applying to schools this coming summer (and thus are in the process of putting together their portfolio), any pre-health student is welcome to come and listen in to the conversation about creating a portfolio.
