MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS
BUILT TO GIVE YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED
Becoming a doctor starts long before medical school; it starts with building a foundation as early as high school. HSAFP gives you the head start most students don’t get, with the tools to learn, lead, and get into the right college.
Why Become a National Member?
With medical school acceptance rates around just 5%, the path to becoming a doctor is one of the most competitive and demanding out there. But that journey doesn’t start in medical school. It starts with getting into the right undergraduate program, and making sure this is truly the path you want to commit over a decade to. HSAFP gives students the opportunity to explore medicine early, gain real-world exposure, and build a strong foundation in high school, before college even begins.
Whether you’re sure or still deciding, this is the smartest way to find out if medicine is right for you…and to get ahead if it is.
