Our Services: You Don't Have to Do it Alone

The University of Washington has pre-health advisers who help enrolled students prepare for undergraduate or graduate health care programs. We will work with you to plan your academic coursework, discuss your health care experiences, and assist with the application process. There's no "right" way to prepare for these programs; working with an adviser can help you to individualize the pre-health information in this web site to your situation.

How do I meet with an adviser?

Information Sessions

Pre-medical and pre-dental students must attend an online information session and submit a written reflection before meeting with an academic adviser. This will help you to ask well-informed questions during your advising appointment.

You can attend this session at any time during the quarter by visiting our information session page.

Appointments

If you are a currently-enrolled undergraduate student or a graduate of the University of Washington, Seattle campus, you can make a 30-minute appointment with a pre-health adviser in UAA Advising by calling 206-543-2550. You can also come to 141 Mary Gates Hall to set up an appointment.

If you are a participant in the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP), you can make an appointment with an EOP pre-health counselor by calling 206-543-7132 or by stopping by the front desk in 141 Mary Gates Hall.

Come prepared! Your advising appointment will be much more effective if you have written down the questions you would like to discuss.

What if I am not a UW student?

Due to the volume of undergraduate students served, we are unable to meet with non-UW Seattle students or graduate students. Please see our web pages designed especially for:
