Resources
TPPAS was founded in order to help foster connections between peers who share the same career ambitions as you. Our primary goal is to support YOU along the pre-PA track, no matter where or when you're starting.
Feel free to reach out to tuftsprepa@gmail.com with any questions pertaining to the club, or if you'd like to get added to the e-list. You can also check out the PA Education Association's website! ( https://paeaonline.org )
Additional Advising
Tufts Health Professions Advising is another incredible resource offered to all Tufts undergraduates. The staff aims to support students as they explore the various health professions and help them prepare competitive applications to apply to graduate programs.
"We work holistically with students to assist with self-assessment and research into healthcare professions; foster self-directed learning; encourage both curricular and extracurricular growth and development; and stress the importance of integrity, responsibility and professionalism."
You can privately meet with the Pre-Health advisors each semester to discuss your course planning or professional plans. That being said, due to the large volume of students, their time is limited, which is
why we established TPPAS. You can be proactive and subscribe to their weekly "Health-E-News" which
details all things healthcare related, ranging from application deadline updates, Tufts department
or club news, upcoming events, meetings/seminars/panels, as well as job, research and volunteer opportunities.
