<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#2F5496">The Post Baccalaureate Program is designed for Californians who have completed their undergraduate degrees but have continued interest in pursuing an application to medical school. We are seeking
individuals from disadvantaged or underserved backgrounds who have unsuccessfully applied to medical school and those who have not yet applied to medical school. The program includes intensive MCAT preparation, application and interview preparation, skills
workshops, healthcare seminars, and science curriculum. Personal attention is given to each participant throughout the medical school application process.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<b>Admissions Workshop</b>, which will be held on <b>Saturday, March 13, 2021, </b>
and an <b>Open House</b> on <b>Writing an Effective Personal Statement</b> on<b> Thursday, March 18, 2021</b>. Please invite any interested students to participate in these events and post the enclosed notices on any virtual notice boards or event calendars
sponsored by your office.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
