Early Assurance Programs

Early Assurance Programs (EAPs) allow for students to apply to a health profession school in year 1 or 2 of their undergraduate career.  A small number of health professional schools offer EAPs (not all) and they are generally binding.  Each program has different requirements so please refer to the schools for specific information.  It is important to determine if this is the right pathway for you.  Historically, we have seen that students who are not admitted to EAPs do succeed in the regular admissions cycle.  EAPs are offered in medical, dental, pharmacy, podiatry, and veterinary schools.
