GRAND FORKS, N.D.—Anyone who is interested in learning about a career as a physician or in the process of applying to medical school is invited to attend the annual PremedDay on Saturday, October 22, from 9:45 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the University of North Dakota School of Medicine & Health Sciences (UND SMHS) in Grand Forks.

Organized by the UND SMHS Student Council, this is a wonderful opportunity for college undergraduates and high school juniors and seniors who are thinking about becoming a physician. Individuals who have applied to medical school and who need more specific information on the admissions process may also attend.
