Welcome to the Pre-Professional Advising Center

The Seton Hall University Pre-Professional Advising Center (P-PAC) has been developed to provide holistic developmental advising, academic coaching, skill building workshops, and application cycle preparation for scholars interested in pursuing careers in medicine and other healthcare fields.  Every scholar’s journey to professional school is unique and we are here to provide a wide range of support as you navigate the process and make informed decisions. P-PAC provides various opportunities for academic, personal and professional skill development as you prepare for your next step in your professional career. 

P-PAC services: 

  • Individual Pre-Professional Advising 
  • Small Group Pre- Professional Advising 
  • Informational Sessions
  • Exposure to different career paths  
  • Networking opportunities with professional in the field, clinical physicians, and current medical students 
  • Student Panels: Advice from students for students 
  • Academic Success coaching 
  • Navigation through Professional School Application Processes
  • Specialized workshops and experiential programming
  • Email Listserv for pre-health students highlighting upcoming events, up-to-date information and opportunities

Preparation for professional school starts from day 1 of your undergraduate career. Students are encouraged to connect and meet with the P-PAC first semester of freshman year of college and continue every semester throughout the undergraduate journey to professional school. Consistent advising appointments are advised to ensure students are meeting professional school requirements and developing into competitive applicants.

Note: You are still required to meet with your academic advisor each semester for your registration pin. Sessions at the P-PAC focus specifically on preparation and development for professional school. 

Resources, events, and information will be gradually added and updated. We are taking appointments for individual advising via COMPASS.

Whether you need help figuring out which professional field is right for you, how to become a competitive applicant or want assistance with your application – we are here to help! We look forward to working alongside you as you prepare for your professional career!
