  • What is a health profession fair?

    A Health Professions Fair is a tabling event that brings together students and admissions representatives from professional health programs. Representatives will showcase their schools and programs, providing information and recruiting prospective applicants.

  • What are the benefits of attending a health profession fair?

    This is an excellent opportunity for students to ask questions about program requirements, admissions, and the application process in a relaxed, informal setting. It’s a chance to gather valuable insights that will help you make informed decisions about which schools and programs align best with your career goals. Additional benefits include:

    • Networking with the individuals who may review your application
    • Gaining information to help strengthen your portfolio and enhance your competitiveness as a candidate

     

  • How to prepare for the fair?

    When approaching representatives, remember to be polite, introduce yourself, and maintain good eye contact. This is a great opportunity to use your "30-second elevator pitch" to briefly share your interests, enthusiasm, and passion for pursuing a career in healthcare.

    Be sure to thank the representative for their time and for any brochures or materials they provide. Before moving on, jot down their name and email address, and follow up with a thank-you email when you have the chance.
