Muhlenberg provides support for students and alumni preparing for careers in law, medicine and the other health professions (dentistry, veterinary medicine, optometry, pharmacy, physical therapy, etc.). Our mission is to guide those interested in legal and health careers toward setting realistic goals and maximizing their undergraduate education.
We offer guidance at every step of the process: selecting appropriate and challenging courses, gaining relevant experience outside of the classroom, preparing for professional school admissions tests and applying to specific programs. Individual appointments may be scheduled with advisors, and there are also periodic information sessions for all class years. In addition, we invite law and healthcare professionals to campus to meet with interested students, as well as admissions representatives from select schools.
Each chapter of the national Alpha Epsilon Delta honors organization may nominate two students who are going to professional school annually. For the last three years, both of Muhlenberg’s nominees have received awards.
Carlee Davidson ’26 recently spent two days with Chris Raab, M.D. ’93, a Lehigh Valley Health Network pediatrician.
Yana Zelinsky ’28 and Zachary Cohen-Neamie ’28, who met while interviewing for a dentistry program at another college, were surprised to see each other again at Muhlenberg’s admitted student event. Now, they are close friends who take many of the same classes.
