Join us for the annual Health Professions Fair for your chance to connect with admissions officers from health institutions!

Description

The Health Professions Fair is an opportunity for students to network with admissions representatives and learn more about their professional programs. We have invited all of our Texas professional schools as well as many schools from across the country, so you won’t want to miss this wonderful opportunity! We know it would be impossible for most of us to visit every school, so we bring the schools to you!

Student Information

This event is for students from UT Austin, Austin Community College, St. Edward's University, Southwestern University, and Huston-Tillotson University only. Students who are interested in finding out more about the health professions career pathways are encouraged to join.
