A bit more on the Select Scholars Program
The Boston university School of Public Health Select Scholars program is a network of leading undergraduate institutions that creates education opportunities that prepare students to contribute to a healthier global society. The BUSPH Select Scholars Program offers a unique opportunity for outstanding undergraduates with an interest in public health to enroll in a top graduate public health program and join a cohort of their peers through accelerated placement and subsequent graduate training in public health. The program provides early immersion in public health, giving students the opportunity to explore different options that are available in this field, and connecting them with faculty mentors for academic and career advising. 

Who can apply? Undergraduates in their junior year. Gain early acceptance to a top graduate program and complete your senior year at Carleton. A summer program will be held in Boston in the summer between students’ junior and senior years at their undergraduate institution to connect them with the BUSPH community including faculty, prepare for graduate-level coursework in public health, and learn more about the various career opportunities available to public health professionals.
