Introduction

In this module, you will find resources for different health-related professional school programs. Each profession has a page full of information and resources to help you learn more about the profession and what your next steps should be. Here are some common resources applicable to all professions:

What major should I declare?

There is no major that guarantees admission into professional school. You are encouraged to pursue a major you are interested in and passionate about as the requisite courses needed for professional school can be worked into most majors. Did you know...the associate dean at the CU Medical School was a music major in undergrad! You can find more information about the different majors offered at UCCS on our website. When you've found a couple of majors that interest you, schedule an appointment with your academic advisor to discuss them and how the requisites for the professional school you are interested in can be included.

When should I start shadowing/observing/getting experience/volunteering?

It is never too early to start! Summer is a great opportunity for this if you are focused on your academics during the school year.
