During this event, you’ll have the chance to: 

  • Discover what makes the CMU College of Medicine unique.

  • Tour our state-of-the-art facilities, curriculum offerings, and cutting-edge simulation technology.
  • Get a first-hand glimpse of the student experience, both in and out of the classroom.

You will also have the opportunity to explore the Central Michigan University campus and the vibrant Mount Pleasant community. We hope attending this event will help you make one of the most important decisions of your life—choosing where to pursue your medical education.
