This application is for students and alums applying to health professions programs that prefer a "Committee Letter". The most common programs that request these letters are MD, DO, dental, podiatry and optometry.  This should be started in the fall BEFORE the spring and summer professional school applications availability. If you are not sure whether or not you should complete this application, or if you have any other questions, please contact the pre-health office at prehealth@vassar.edu.
