Hope Medical Scholars

Diversifying the medical field starts with our young scholars.

What is Hope Medical Scholars?

Hope Medical Scholars is an intensive immersion program for underrepresented minority and first generation students in the New England area. It provides selected scholars the opportunity to get a snap shot into the life of Harvard Medical School students and connect them with mentors, who come from similar backgrounds and interests, and opportunities, to strengthen their application to college and medical school.
