USC Pre-Med Academy Application Open

The application for the new USC Pre-Med Academy is now open.  Offered free of charge through Bovard Scholars, the USC Pre-Med Academy is designed for high-achieving college students, nationwide, who have financial need and lack the resources needed to succeed in the highly competitive medical school application process. Our flexible, fully online program, offered at no-cost, is customized to recognize students’ strengths, connect them with peers, and guide students toward success in the medical school admissions process.

Our program provides personalized, one-on-one mentorship and advising from our medical school admissions expert, access to current medical students, practicing physicians, and medical school faculty and staff, MCAT test prep, nationwide peer community connections, relevant workshops, guest speakers, and complete application support—from the personal statement, and letters of recommendation to school selection and interviewing.   

 

To learn more about our program and to apply, please visit our website and check out our program overview video, near the top of the homepage.  We invite freshman and sophomore students with a 3.5 GPA or higher who are first-generation college students and/or Pell-eligible with a lack of access to advising, test prep and resources to apply.  Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, and space is limited, so please apply ASAP for the best chance of admission.  We will continue accepting applications until our class is full, or no later than November 18, 2022, whichever occurs first.  Our program begins mid-January 2023 and support continues throughout the pre-med planning, application, and decision-making process.
