What If Your Student Could See What Their Future in Medicine Could Look Like?

Jada McMahon already knew she was interested in medicine.

But attending the Congress as a high school senior gave her something more: a chance to see young people like herself already making an impact in science and medicine.

That experience helped turn an interest in medicine into a future she could see herself pursuing.

See How the Congress Shaped Jada's Journey

From a 2020 interview when Jada was a medical student at SUNY Upstate

Jada attended the Congress of Future Medical Leaders as a high school senior.

There, she met students and medical professionals who showed her that people her age were already making an impact in science and medicine.

She left inspired to take her passions seriously and pursue medicine without waiting for the "right" time.

Today, Jada is a Psychiatry Resident at Yale School of Medicine.

She says the Congress "solidified for me that medicine was an option for me."

If you see that same potential in your student, nominate them today.

Seeing What's Possible Can Change Everything

Seeing What's Possible Can Change Everything

Your student may already know they love science.

They may already be thinking about becoming a doctor.

But knowing what you want and believing that you can actually do it are two different things.

For Jada, the Congress gave her the chance to see students her own age pursuing extraordinary opportunities in science.

She watched young people receive national recognition for their work. She met doctors and researchers from different backgrounds. And she saw women succeeding in medicine and science.

For the first time, the path felt attainable.

Who This Is For

The Congress is designed for high school and college students who show strong academic effort and a genuine interest in medicine.

All accepted students meet at least one of the following (verification required):

  • A GPA of 3.5 or above (either current or cumulative)
  • An SAT score of 1300+
  • An ACT score of 22+

What Your Student Will Experience

At the Congress, students don't just hear about careers in medicine.

They experience what the world of medicine and medical research can look like. They:

  • Hear directly from Nobel Laureates, physicians, and researchers
  • Watch a live surgery and ask questions in real time
  • Learn how successful students begin building their path toward medical school
  • Meet other high-achieving students who are just as serious about their future
  • See people from different backgrounds succeeding in medicine and science

For many students, that exposure can make a future that once felt distant feel much more attainable.
