The UCI School of Medicine, Latino Medical Student Association (LMSA) and Student National Medical Association (SNMA) at UC Irvine are proud to announce the 9th Annual Pre-Health Conference. We will host this event at the UC Irvine Main Campus on Saturday, October 31st, 2009.

We invite you to participate in our 9th Annual Pre-Health Conference. The theme of this year’s conference is Empowering You to be the Future of Medicine. The UC Irvine School of Medicine LMSA-SNMA Pre-Health Conference offers workshops and personal interaction with healthcare professionals, medical students, faculty, and staff for motivated pre-health students ranging from high school through Post baccalaureates. Participants learn about health professional school admissions requirements, features of a competitive applicant, proper interviewing etiquette, and financing a health profession education, among other things.

Last year over 600 students attended the conference and this year we expect to grow beyond that, in terms of participants from all over southern California. We Invite students from all the UC (UCLA, UCI, UCSD, UCR, UCSB) and Cal State schools, USC and other private schools in the area, as well as local Community colleges and High Schools.  Based on the attendee feedback one of the most popular and beneficial sessions in the conference schedule is the exhibitor fair.  Many conference attendees will be applying to graduate programs in the health sciences in the very near future and are seeking information on the wide range of options in professional schools.  This is an excellent opportunity for you to meet and present to a targeted group of motivated students interested in a career in the health sciences.

All registered exhibitors will be provided with a six foot table and two chairs to accommodate two representatives from your school or organization. Free parking and lunch will be provided for up to two representatives. The exhibitor fair is scheduled for at least 2 hours, per the Schedule of Events page. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to visit your table between sessions throughout the day.
