Peer Advisors

HPA Peer Advisors are trained to help their peers plan for their health professions futures. They can assist with prerequisite course review, timeline planning, finding extracurricular activities, and other awesome opportunities. Peer advisors undergo an extensive selection and training process to serve Health Professions Advising.
