Rowan-Virtua SOM Summer PREP

The Rowan-Virtua SOM Summer PREP is an educational internship offered annually to promising undergraduates from New Jersey institutions, providing a comprehensive introduction to osteopathic medicine and preparation for medical school. The fully funded program immerses participants in clinical and research opportunities alongside faculty and medical students. It includes MCAT preparation, academic coursework related to medical sciences, and seminars that enhance medical school application skills. The program promotes professional networking and allows students to present their clinical or research work. Running from early June through early July 2025, this program targets New Jersey college students who are EOF recipients and have maintained a GPA of 2.75 or higher. Students benefit from a stipend, educational resources, and hands-on experiences at the Rowan-Virtua SOM facilities in Stratford. Completion is recognized with a certificate, but academic credit is not awarded. Health insurance and vaccination proof are mandatory for participation.
