Applying to Health Professions schools is a challenging process that requires persistence, attention to detail, and self reflection.

This page features some of the key points and questions related to the AMCAS. - Hopkins candidates have the benefit of going through a Committee Process, which results in a Committee Letter that becomes part of his/her application. This section outlines the process. - Developing and maintaining strong relationships is an important part of preparing for the application process. This page addresses elements related to requesting and submitting letters of recommendation. - This is where you get to move beyond your numbers (GPA and MCAT) and show your passion for the health professions. This section offers helpful tips to aid you in your writing. - Many students spend hours on their application and then do not spend time preparing for interviews.
