“These 4 weeks at Penn Medicine Summer Program have been an inspiring and captivating experience; not only do we have access to the Penn Medicine and Medical School resources, but also we get to hear lectures given by Penn Medicine professors and doctors, who are all passionate about their work and willing to provide guidance and mentorship. Even our TAs - who are all current medical students - envy us as we have the opportunity to gain exposure to knowledge and skills they haven't even encountered yet.”
“This experience for my son is hard to put into words - he texted me during the program and said 'Mom- I am so grateful to you. This is the best thing I have EVER done.' Between the relationships he made with other students from this country and others, the hands-on lab work and the lectures with accomplished professors, this program has solidified any doubt he had about becoming a physician.”
“The program is truly fantastic because it provides a great exposure to all the career fields in medicine. It does a great job in teaching students theoretical knowledge as well as gives practical experience. We had a good balance between play and work, allowing students to have the best of both worlds.”
“My son absolutely loved every moment of this program. The hands-on experience and getting to meet doctors from different fields made him even more sure he wanted to go into medicine. He made so many friends and had a great time every weekend on the excursions. Highly recommend this to any High Schooler. Wonderful experience.”
“I would definitely recommend this experience to other students as it gives students the opportunity to be open to different specialities in medicine. You will be able to interact with medical students and doctors that work at UPenn. This program also allows you to be interactive with other students who are international and engage in fun activities during the evening, and take trips on the weekend as well. 10/10 SUMMER PROGRAM!!!”
“I was scared to let my daughter go away for so long away from home, but the staff were amazing and very comforting. From the application process, all the way through returning home after 4 weeks, everyone was super helpful! The frequent updates and pictures were a blessing!”
