CDU HCOP Application Instructions
- CDU HCOP Ambassador Academy: Ambassadors have both a Student Mentee and a Career Mentor. In line with HCOP’s tiered mentorship model, Undergraduate Ambassadors will mentor a high school student participating in Public Health Academy (PHCA) while Graduate Ambassadors will mentor an undergraduate student also participating in HCOP’s Ambassador Academy. Career mentors will be either a student in the Ambassador’s desired professional school (I.e. medical student, physician’s assistant student, etc.) or a professional in their career of interest. The type of mentors Ambassadors are paired with were based on their career interests and self-described “next steps” in their efforts towards a health career. Those planning on taking an entrance exam, completing an application for professional school, or interviewing for professional school will be paired with a professional school student. All other students will be paired with a professional in their career of interest.
