Workshop Description:
Choosing a medical school pathway can feel like sorting signal from noise, especially when advice comes second-hand or from people who have no clue how admissions actually works. In this workshop, you will hear directly from the source: Dr. John Graneto, Founding Dean and Professor at CHSU College of Osteopathic Medicine, will walk you through what osteopathic medical education looks like today and what applicants should understand before they apply. Designed for community college, university, and post-bacc premed students, this session will clarify how schools evaluate academic preparation, service, clinical exposure, leadership, and mission fit, and how to present your story with integrity and strategy. You are encouraged to come, ask your questions, and get real answers in a supportive, practical environment, whether you are early in your journey or preparing to apply soon. Leave with clearer expectations, fewer myths, and concrete next steps you can act on immediately for your application cycle.
