PREMED?
The Tufts Pre-Med Mentorship Program pairs underclassmen with upperclassmen to help underclassmen navigate the journey of being pre-med at Tufts. Students will gain insight into areas such as course planning and extracurriculars. For upperclassmen, this is a great opportunity to share your knowledge and help underclassmen along their journeys. Come be a part of this rewarding experience!
