P3 assists students with academic and career goals to prepare them tobe qualified candidates for these professional programs. In this respect,“Pre-Professional” refers to most medically related fields, including but not limited to, medical, dental, veterinary, physician assistant, optometry, podiatry, and physical therapy, but does not apply to nursing or to pre-law studies and other paths that lie outside of the natural sciences and health professions.  \nIn this program, students will participate in specific activities designed to increase awareness of competitiveness and that encourage continued exploration of the health care field. Activities include workshops, classes, one-on-one advising, professional observation and volunteer experiences. Students completing the program are well prepared to submit aholistically competitive application to outstanding professional programs.  \nStudents interested in P3 should declare their intent to their academic advisor and participate in workshops and activities facilitated by the Science and Pre-Health Career and Internship Coordinator as soon as their first semester at Florida Southern College.  \nAlthough any FSC student may pursue a pre-health track, only those students who apply, are accepted, and maintain eligibility, are considered members of the FSC Pre-Professional Program (P3).  \nFull participation in P3 includes a 2-part application process. Students must gain acceptance into P3 (Part 1) to be eligible to apply for Part 2. Students who successfully complete Part 2 will be recognized as having completed the P3 program.  \n􀁸 Part 1-Acceptance into P3 requires completion of specific coursework, a competitive GPA, a personal statement, extracurricular activities, and completion of an application by January 15th of the second or third year* .  \n􀁸 Part 2-Completion of P3 requires submission of an extensive application by February 1st of the third or fourth year * and culminates in a formal Committee Interview and Letter of Evaluation.  \n*P3 is designed to be completed immediately prior to the submission of a student's professional school application. Therefore, completion of both part 1 and part 2 is dictated by a students intended application date, rather than their year in school. Ideally, students would submit their Part 1 application about 1 ½ years before they plan to submit their professional school application. They would then submit their Part 2 application about 6 months prior to submitting their professional school application. Transfer students, students planning to graduate from Florida Southern in less than 4 years, and students planning to take one or more gap years, should consider this information when determining the appropriate application date.  \nMeeting the basic eligibility requirements does not guarantee acceptance into the Pre-Professional Program (P3). Applicants are reviewed holistically by the FSC Health Professions Advisory Committee (HPAC) who collectively make recommendations for acceptance following a thorough review of application materials, competencies, and emotional intelligence.  \nStudents with specific questions regarding their individual, recommended Part 1 and Part 2 application dates should contact Ms. Lauren Albaum, the Science and Pre-Health Career and Internship Coordinator for more information.  \nPROGRAM BENEFITS:  \nStudents participating in P3 at FSC are provided all of the following benefits:  \n􀁸 Students who complete all program requirements will be awarded a distinctive graduation honor cord and will have a notation added to their transcript.  \n􀁸 Students in P3 may request a letter of evaluation (commonly referred to as a committee letter) from the Health Professions Advisory Committee (HPAC), to be se","cbCaioEfyGGlHpOq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioEfyGGlHpOq","pdf",555172,"English","# Overview\n## Program purpose and eligibility\n## Two-part application process\n# Program benefits\n## Graduation honor cord and transcript notation\n## Committee letter and advising sessions\n# Part 1: Preparing to apply\n## Part 1 eligibility requirements\n## Part 1 application deadline","[{\"question\":\"What is the Pre-Professional Program (P3) for at Florida Southern College?\",\"answer\":\"P3 is designed to prepare students for competitive admission to health professions schools after they complete their undergraduate degrees.
