Chilly weather? Warm up with some application preparation!

Thank you to all of you who met with PPA and/or took one of our courses this semester! We appreciate you. Best of luck to all pre-professional students on your finals and we hope you have a relaxing winter break.

As it becomes colder outside, grab your favorite warm drink and spend some time learning about your future (or upcoming) application.

Winter break is a great time to visit your future application site and professional organizations (found on the Career Guides available on our Career page in the first drop-down box for that field). Also, if you have an admission test to take for your application, start learning all about it as early in the process as you can. We are happy to be here for you and to answer any questions!
