Dear Advisor:

The Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP) staff makes every effort to provide as much information as we can to help SHPEP applicants understand the application process. Therefore, we know the importance of regularly updating prehealth advisors about the program, given the integral role you play in the lives of students. On behalf of the SHPEP National Program Office (NPO), you are cordially invited to the Steps to Success with the SHPEP Application Webinar on Dec. 21 at 6:00 p.m. EST.

During this 75-minute session, attendees will learn about the free educational opportunities SHPEP offers and tips for completing an application. Attendees will also gain insight into SHPEP’s virtual experience from an SHPEP Program Site Mentor and our program ambassadors.

As many of you are aware, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, physical distancing guidelines, and the closure of some campuses, SHPEP will again be a 100% virtual experience in summer 2021. Here are a few resources to learn more about SHPEP’s virtual implementation:

We hope you will encourage eligible applicants to participate in this session and apply by the Feb. 5 deadline!

Warm regards,
