Inside UCSF

Follow Your Path: Inside UCSF

The UCSF Schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy and the Graduate Division have invited students interested in dentistry, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, physical therapy and/or the biological sciences to attend our annual outreach program. "Inside UCSF" takes place in April each year. This exciting and informative event is free, and designed to give students an in-depth introduction to a specific health science career path, a chance to meet current students and become inspired about future career possibilities.

Interactive panels of students from the schools of dentistry, medicine, nursing, pharmacy and the life sciences discussing their path to, and succeeding in, professional and graduate school. Specific introductions to one of the professional schools or the graduate division, including conversations with faculty, staff and students. Workshops to demystify the preparation for and application to graduate and professional school. A classroom experience to expose you to a typical graduate/professional school academic experience.

Each year, we reach out to 100 diverse students from across the San Francisco Bay Area and California for this two-day experience. UCSF covers the cost of meals, materials, and travel for all participants, as well as accommodations for those without BART or CalTrain access.

The application period for Inside UCSF opens in February and closes in March of each year.
