One of the objectives of the Office of Student Academic Support and Strategic Programs is to provide our medical students with every assistance in their endeavors to become future outstanding physicians and/or biomedical researchers. Thus, a number of academic and support services (e.g., Academic Mentorship Program; workshops on time management, stress management, test-taking skills, and USMLE preparation) are available to medical students during their four years in medical school. Students have access to these services through self-referral as well as referral by faculty and administrators. These services are further described under the Office of Student Academic Support and Strategic Programs (see their web site).
