How has COVID-19 affected HPS?
The safety of attendees, presenters, and committee members remains our top priority as we plan for HPS 2024. Please continue to check our website regularly for information regarding how HPS 2024 will run. If you have any questions feel free to email us at [email protected]
Why should I attend HPS?
HPS is an event that is held only once a year, and is unlike anything else offered in the state. With over 250 different presenters from various professions and walks of life, this is an opportunity for you to find resources, get plugged in, and connect with professionals and students that you might otherwise not be able to meet. If you are considering a future in healthcare, you don’t want to miss out on HPS.
Is there a cost to attend HPS?
There is no cost to attend! HPS is free to all attendees and presenters.
What is a workshop?
A workshop is a 45-minute session led by either a provider, an advisor, or a panel and can feature a multitude of topics and layout styles. Examples of workshops include presentations with a Q&A, discussion-based panels, and interactive ones with engaging activities! Workshops provide you the ability to explore a particular field of healthcare, gain insight into the admissions and financial aid processes, or to talk directly with professional students and providers about their experiences and advice. We guarantee there is something for you! See the list of workshops from the previous event (HPS 2023).
What is an information table?
The information table session provides you the opportunity to speak directly with providers, schools, student organizations, and more. See the list of information tables from the previous event (HPS 2023).
What kinds of workshops can I expect at HPS?
Workshops are divided into one of a few categories: admissions, financial aid, professional panels, student panels, information for high school students, interesting and interactive workshops, research, and general information – which includes a breadth of topics such as specialties, programs, volunteering, and overviews of different healthcare fields.
Does the website show the full list of workshops and information tables?
As the date of HPS nears, we will continue to add new workshops and information tables as presenters register. What you see now might not be the full list, so continue to check back as more are added.
I can’t attend for the whole day. Should I still come?
Absolutely! Attend as many workshops that works with your schedule.
I’ve already attended HPS before. Why should I go again?
Each year we feature new workshops from new presenters, so there is always something new to see. However, since it won't be possible to attend every workshop, you will always have the opportunity to visit workshops you have not yet seen!
What can HPS offer besides pre-med information?
HPS offers workshops and information tables for a wide variety of health professions in addition to medicine, including (but not limited to) pharmacy, dentistry, nursing, PT, OT, and many more. We also include workshops on general information such as financial aid, volunteering, and research.
I’m in high school. Is it too early to go to HPS?
Not at all! We have many workshops catered towards high school students, including topics such as college admissions, the BA/MD program, and volunteering. HPS is a great opportunity to jumpstart your future career in healthcare, or to simply test the waters and help you decide if this path is right for you before attending college.
I’ve already applied to professional schools. Should I still go to HPS?
Sure! We have a number of workshops that can benefit you no matter where you are at in your application process, such as student and resident panels, financial aid resources, and research opportunities.
I would like to present a workshop or an information table. How do I sign up?
If you are interested in being a presenter for either a workshop or table, you can register here. There is a separate form for workshops and tables, so if you are planning to do both, please fill out both forms.
I am interested in sponsoring or donating to HPS. How can I help?

I have a question that isn’t on this list. What do I do?
