Pre-Health Advisory Committee (PAC)
Traditionally, many medical or dental programs encourage a "committee letter" of evaluation. At OSU, this is the Pre-Health Advisory Committee (PAC) Interview and Letter of Evaluation process.
While not required for your professional application, a PAC evaluation and letter is highly recommended on many medical/dental school applications.

- Application Process
Applications are completed electronically and submitted using Canvas, where all application instructions, materials, and additional details are housed. Joining the PAC Canvas does not start an application and can be reversed. Alumni who no longer have access to their OSU email and associated accounts should reach out directly to our office to apply. All application materials, including all supporting documentation, must be received on Canvas no later than the deadline.
