Health Professions Advisory Committee
The role of the Health Professions Advisory Committee is to guide, advise and evaluate students who are preparing for careers in the health professions, and provide the health professional schools with a Connecticut College Pre-Health Committee letter of recommendation.
If you are a Connecticut College student interested in a health profession and would like to learn about careers in medicine please sign up with Marylynn Fallon Pre-Health Adviser/Chair, Pre-Health Advisory Committee. Current students may also subscribe to the Pre-Health Listserv.
