Our Services

Individual Advising

At Lehman College, the Pre-Health Program Director is available to help current students including transfers and post-bacs, prospective students, and alums interested in one of the pre-health professions with all of the  advising questions.

Committee Letters

Certain professional schools want a "committee letter" from the school you attended. Committee letters are in addition to individual letters of recommendation.

Personal Statements

The Pre-Health Program Director is available to help students craft and revise personal statements for application to professional schools, summer programs, etc.

Mock Interviews

If you have an interview for a professional school coming up, the Pre-Health Program Director can conduct a mock interview with you, tailored to the particular school at which you're under consideration.

Pre-Health Program Director Letters of Recommendation

We are happy to provide letters of recommendations for programs (such as some summer programs) which require a letter from a pre-health advisor.

Group Advising

The Pre-Health Program Director also provides group advising sessions, particularly for courses closely linked to students planning on careers in one or more of the health professions.

Outside Speakers and Special Events

The office of Pre-Health Advising arranges visits to Lehman by representatives from professional schools, Lehman alums who are currently in the health professions, test prep companies, and more.

Target Response Times

Targets are not guarantees. While the Pre-Health Program Director will make an effort to meet these targets, it will not always be possible

Appointments

All appointments are made available by close of business every Thursday for the following week, and can be requested via the Pre-Health Program Hub.
