What's an Atlantis Program?
* 50-200+ shadowing hours
* 1-10 weeks over college breaks
* Multiple specialties (1 per week)
* U.S. & Europe (study abroad)
* Some programs are multi-country
Compared to typical pre-health volunteering or shadowing, Atlantis shadowing has greater depth (see surgeries), breadth (see several specialties), quantity (90 hours in 1 month), and intercultural perspective (do this in the U.S. + several countries in 1 trip).
Most pre-health students don’t prioritize their GPA enough. Participating in Atlantis shadowing over summer break allows you to focus on classes during the school year. That's part of why our alumni are admitted to 40 of the top 50 MD programs.
Atlantis alumni constantly bring Atlantis shadowing to their medical/PA applications and interviews, using stories to show competencies that medical/PA schools want.
