ANNOUNCING: The 8th Annual Health Professions Program Fair on Wednesday, Feb. 24 from 3:00-5:30 pm

Texas State University Health Professions Programs Fair

Virtual this year using Handshake platform

Wednesday, February 24 from 3:00-5:30 pm

Hello to ALL pre-health students,

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our 8th annual Health Professions Programs Fair will be held virtually this year.

We know that speaking to people virtually is not the same as walking up to their table and speaking to them in person, but it is heck of a lot better than not speaking to them at all. So make plans to attend this annual event. You can arrive at any time you want between 3:00 and 5:30 pm. You can stay as much or as little time as you want. You can visit as many or few “exhibitors” as you would like. The power is yours. But do not squander this opportunity to learn, ask questions, and make contacts with schools you may be applying to sooner or later.

Using the platform Handshake, you will have the opportunity to speak live with a wide variety of people.

Attending the fair will be ADMISSIONS OFFICERS from every conceivable type of health profession that you can imagine, representatives from the US MILITARY and other GRANT/SCHOLARSHIP granting offices, TEST PREP companies, international programs, and more!!!!

Explore medical, dental, optometry, vet, PA, PT, nursing, pharmacy, OT, anesthesiology assistant, orthotics and prosthetics, naturopathic, podiatric, chiropractic and other types of healthcare-related programs!
