Applications for the Summer Healthcare Professionals Education Program (SHPEP), a Robert Wood Johnson funded opportunity for college students interested in healthcare professions, open on November 1. SHPEP specifically targets students from economically or educationally disadvantaged backgrounds and those with demonstrated interest in issues affecting underserved populations. The goal is to help college freshmen, sophomores, and juniors apply and matriculate successfully to health professions schools. SHPEP is housed at 10 universities across the country with different start dates – all over the summer. Housing, meals, stipend, and travel expenses are all paid.
Take a look at the program's FAQ page here. The application deadline is February 5.
