Welcome to the Center for Pre-Health Advising!

The Center for Pre-Health Advising (CPHA) is a centralized resource for all UW-Madison students and alumni – no time limit – who are interested in pursuing careers in healthcare. Our primary advising expertise is  supporting students to explore, prepare for, and apply to graduate level professional programs. We are here to support you — wherever you are on your path to serving others in health care. 

Based in the Pre-Professional Advising office in suite 205 Middleton Building on campus, we are co-located with the Center for Pre-Law Advising (CPLA). CPHA and CPLA have a shared priority of increasing access, equity, & diversity in the fields of health and law.

Health is more than the absence of disease.
Health is about jobs and unemployment, education, the environment,
and all of those things that go into making us healthy.
