Why AED?
“Applying to AED is a fantastic opportunity because it provides invaluable insights into navigating the premed process and securing a place in an excellent medical school. Being part of this honor society has allowed me to form lasting friendships that have not only enriched my academic journey but have also created a supportive community that I know will feel like family for life. As I enter my senior year as AED’s Recruitment & Inclusion Chair, I hope to share the warmth and support that define our AED family and ensure that its resources are accessible to all.”
