What is the Pre-Health Symposium?
The Pre-Health Symposium (PHS) is the largest annual health professional event offered at Baylor University. Hosted by Alpha Epsilon Delta and the Pre-Health Studies Office, PHS provides several opportunities for pre-health students to meet representatives from different institutions and learn about what they look for in prospective students. Representatives will have the opportunity to host a booth and/or breakout session that allows students to ask questions and make connections with each school. Students will also be able to attend individual lectures led by the representatives to hear more information about each institution. We are also excited to announce that this event will be attended by members from other AED chapters in Texas, making this year’s event also a regional Pre-Health Symposium.
This year, PHS will include schools from across the country in an in-person format. This will allow students to hear from many institutions in a unique and engaging manner!

Who can attend?
All Baylor students are welcome to participate in this great experience, but our AED members have a special opportunity to host these professional schools. Hosting a school offers the unique chance to form connections with administrative staff and current students of the professional schools and ask questions in a one-on-one setting.

A large portion of our Baylor students are from out of state and AED wants to help cater to these students and their future aspirations.
