The Pre-Med Diversity Symposium is an annual UBC faculty-sponsored event designed to encourage people from all walks of life to apply to medical school. This event is tailored to applicants who consider themselves ‘non-traditional’ for reasons that may include having a non-science background, applying later in life, having children and family, having financial or personal hardship, or belonging to a demographic underrepresented in medicine. The event will include speakers (faculty members, admissions staff, medical professionals, and medical students) and interactive break-out sessions to answer attendee questions.
This year's event is scheduled for:
Date: Saturday, March 6th
Time: 10:00am - 12:30pm
How: Zoom details to be emailed to those who have RSVP'ed
We have created a place for you to ask us your most pressing questions prior to the symposium (link below). You can also up-vote questions that have been posted by others. We will try our best to address the most popular questions during the symposium.
