Mini Medical School for High School Students

This program is tailored for sophomore, junior and senior New Jersey high school students interested in medical careers. Students must be recommended by their faculty.

This is a wonderful opportunity for students to sample a medical school curriculum. We are hoping to foster a lasting interest in the health sciences and to pique interest in volunteering in our clinical and research arenas in the future.
