Are you planning a career in the health sciences?
Curious about the application and admission process to professional schools?
Then attend our gathering on
Wednesday, January 30 at 5:30pm in the Special Events Room, Port-Sky.
Dr. John Joyce and Dr. Alice Plummer Joyce, medical doctors in our area and
alumni of Penn State Altoona will be our guests to tell you about the
process and answer your questions.
"From Penn State-Altoona to medical school.......been there, done that, and
you can too."
Please know that this information also will be helpful if you plan to
apply to programs in dentistry, optometry, physical therapy, etc. There are
many similarities among these very competitive programs.
· It’s okay to be late. We’ll probably be there until at least
7:00pm.
· We’re serving pizza and soda, so your appetite is welcome too.
Questions? Contact J. Winsor in Room 109 Science, wmi@psu.edu
