We are looking specifically for students who come from backgrounds that are statistically underrepresented in the healthcare professions such as African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans and Pacific Islanders. However, all students interested in this program are more than welcome to apply. This is a fun program and previous students have really enjoyed it and found it very informative. If a student has already participated in the program, they are not eligible to participate another year because the program is not significantly different from year to year.

The dates for HPREP 2015 will be: Jan 10th, 17th, and 24th, Feb 7th, 14th and 21nd (Note that we will take an intermission and not have HPREP on January 31st)
Time:
9:00 AM – 12:00 pm at the Feinberg Campus in Downtown Chicago
Deadlines
All applications must be submitted by Dec 8th, 2014
Students should hear our decision during the week of Dec 15th
