College Bootcamp: Gear Up for Greatness --DAY TWO!

Tue, 12 Aug 2025 10:54:19 -0400

COLLEGE BOOTCAMP 2025 is off to a great start and for day two we will be focusing on making sure that pre-health students are well connected and on the path towards becoming competitive candidates. Not a pre-health student!?! Building a strong portfolio is important for you as well! Jump in for our 12:30 session for more information on how!

At 12PM we are starting with "Ready, Set, Care: An Academic Program for Aspiring Health Pros " which will dive into how to identify what classes are needed for pre-health admissions, how to connect with your respective pre-health advisors, and what resources UMBC offers along the way. It's never too early to start your pre-health planning!

At 12:30PM we are going to focus on how to build a competitive portfolio with "Work Your Core Competencies: Repping Your Way to Readiness." During this session, CNMS Assistant Director Christine Powers will be increasing your definitions of "success" and providing you with a set of goals in the form of competencies (or skills) that professional/graduate schools and the workforce find invaluable. In the long run, it's these skills that may help you land your perfect post-grad position!

All sessions will be hosted in the same WebEx space - just click this link to join at any time you wish! Each session will last 20-25 minutes.

Check back tomorrow for more sessions from 12-1PM. The full week's schedule is attached and we hope to see you there!
