EAP for Tufts Medical School

Sophomores interested in applying must complete this form no later than Monday, December 16th to verify they meet the minimum requirements. Only those who meet the bare minimum criteria for the program will be sent an application – minimum 3.5 GPA, 3.5 science GPA, B+ in each science course. The Application will be sent next week once we review Qualtrics forms.

What to know now: You will need three letters of recommendation, at least one of which must be from a Tufts professor who taught and graded you (science is NOT required.) Do not request letters from people unless you know you are eligible to apply.

What to wait on: Reading and starting to complete the application – your finals are much more important. The application is due February 1 so plan on completing it over winter break.

Summer Opportunities
Seven students shared their experiences with us on Monday as we held our annual panel.

Emily Kim ’20 worked at the MGH Disparities Unit and was funded by the Career Center Internship Grant. Her tip for students was – “Be nice to everyone. Make contacts and get to know all the different people where you are interning. They can teach you a lot and can lead you to future opportunities.”

  Here is a flyer with websites that can help you begin your research into summer opps!
