Harvard-student-mentored pre-med programmes for Grades 6–12
Built to give your child a measurable head start
Pre-med starts earlier than you thinkMost students don't hear the words 'pre-med' until university. Ours start at age 11. Whether your child is in Grade 6 or Grade 11, there's a structured program built for their exact stage — and every one leads to the next.
Everything we offer. Pick your starting point.
From first curiosity to med-school readiness — four programs, one clear pathway. Each one is Harvard student-mentored and built for a specific stage.
Future Doctor Fellowship
Harvard student-mentored cohorts of 4–6 students. Case-based clinical reasoning across cardiology, neurology, and ethics. Capstone, mentor letter, and certificate.
Junior Doctor Fellowship
Young students become junior doctors — exploring real cases, learning how physicians think, building their first clinical vocabulary. Certificate included.
Harvard students. Real ones.
Every cohort is led by current Harvard undergraduates pursuing medicine, neuroscience, and global health. Not tutors. Not actors. The students med schools admit.
