Every spring, the Colorado Area Health Education Center invites Pre-Health Advisors to the COAHEC Advisors’ Day.

COAHEC Advisor’s Day is a free virtual event designed specifically for pre-health advisors. It provides an opportunity to network, tour the campus, and learn directly from CU Anschutz staff.

If you're advising students interested in health-related professions like medicine, nursing, public health, or related fields, this event offers a great way to connect, gather resources, and gain insights into CU Anschutz’s programs and facilities.
