medical schools to which you apply will request recommendations if
they plan to consider your application seriously. Unless you hear
otherwise, most medical schools prefer to have a composite letter
from your undergraduate college which summarizes your suitability
for a medical career. The Pre-Health Professions Committee provides
this service for Fort Lewis students. Most of our regional medical
schools expect a letter from the Fort Lewis College Pre-Health
Committee rather than individual letters. If they see individual
letters instead, it may raise a red flag on your application, making
them wonder why you "by-passed" the Committee.
You can help the Committee by giving them an up-to-date resume that
details your coursework, academic achievements, extracurricular
activities and work history. If any of the Committee are unlikely to
remember you well, make an appointment to talk with them. You can
discuss your interest in medicine, your performance in their class
and any further work you may have done in their field of interest.
The Pre-Health Professions Committee will prepare a letter of your
recommendation which it will forward to the medical schools who
request it. The recommendation is based on your academic
performance, your MCAT scores, members' knowledge of your character,
and the results of your Pre-Health Professions Committee interview.
