Happy 40th anniversary to UCLA PREP! 🥳 The UCLA Pre-Medical Enrichment Pathway Program (PREP) is a free, four-week program providing medical school readiness preparation and mentorship to students from social and economic disadvantaged backgrounds. “Being able to meet mentors with similar backgrounds or from first-generation roots has been so empowering and motivating. You really don’t have to explain yourself to them because they know what you’ve been though," shared @csulb student Alexxandra Hurtado, who graduated from the program this year.
