2009 FDSRP Application

Program eligibility

We are looking for students with a demonstrated commitment to the health of Native American communities, and evidence of motivation to achieve the highest goals possible. This does not require the highest grades (we do not request transcripts) or the most extensive research background (previous research experience is not required).

We do require the following:

• Minimum 1 year of undergraduate studies completed prior to start of program (June 2009)
  
• Demonstrated interest in careers in medical sciences
  
• At least 1 introductory science course (can include biology or chemistry)
  
• NOT taking the August MCAT (the time constraints of the program do not allow adequate time for studying for this important exam)
