Pre-Health Summer Opportunities for BIPOC, Underrepresented, and Disadvantaged Background Student Populations

Below is a list of summer enrichment opportunities, organized by state, for students from underrepresented populations, disadvantaged backgrounds, and/or who identify as BIPOC. In addition to enhancing your preparation for a career in healthcare, most of these programs provide generous stipends and housing allowance. This list will serve as an excellent starting point from which you can begin your own search for summer opportunities. Keep in mind that the Bates Center for Purposeful Work also has a list of programs that do not target a specific population of students. You may wish to include these programs in your search.
