Your Journey to Medicine Starts Here
An Online Community by PreMedical Students for PreMedical Students at Community Colleges, Universities, and Post-Bacc
Are you a Pre-Medical student attending a Community College? We understand how difficult it can be to find quality mentorship. PreMedCC can connect you with experts in medicine who started at Community College just like you!
Upcoming Events
Join Us Virtually from Anywhere!
From the comfort of your home, you will be connected to an online community of pre-medical students and learn from people who were in the same place you are now. We are proud to host presentations by former Community College students, first-generation, the disadvantaged, immigrants, DACA, and the Underrepresented in Medicine (as defined by the AAMC) who are now experts and leaders in medicine. PreMedCC holds workshops regarding financial aid, preparing for the MCAT, writing personal statements, applying for summer programs, transferring, and avoiding common pitfalls pre-medical students tend to fall into. Deans of admission from medical and other health professional schools will also be holding sessions to help you succeed.
