Thursday, November 9

Also, for help with personal statements for HPAC, Early Selection, Pre-Health and Public Health programs, please plan ahead and schedule a career coaching appointment sooner than later to secure your appointment/s. The Center for Career Services is open over winter break and I can work with you virtually if you are not in DC. Winter break is a great time to work on your application materials (and be sure to take a break, too!).
Keep in mind that the HPAC application is due January 31, 2018. Please plan accordingly as spring semester begins mid-January. You can schedule appointments now for January and beyond.
NOTE: This year, I am unable to accommodate personal statement appointments the week before the HPAC deadline, I have met with you already.
I look forward to our continued work together. Best wishes,
Nicole Mintz
