What is the Health Professions Advising Center (HPAC)?

 

The Cornell Health Professions Advising Center (HPAC) serves all pre-health students at Cornell University. The HPAC supports the academic and professional development of students interested in pursuing careers in medicine, dentistry, optometry, and podiatry, as well as health professions in pharmacy, chiropractic therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, physician assistant roles, and veterinary medicine.

The HPAC has created an Applicant Canvas Course for undergraduate students who plan to apply to medical/dental/podiatry/optometry programs. Students who plan to have a completed Cornell Letter Packet in 2023 and matriculate to medical/dental school in 2024 will be required to complete Modules 1 and 2 of the HPAC Applicant Canvas Course (Readiness and Writing) to qualify for a Comprehensive Advising Appointment. The HPAC Canvas Course is meant to ensure each pre-health student has successful, well-developed applications to the schools of their choice!
