    Over het programma

    Are you craving meaningful clinical exposure to elevate your medical school application? Then this immersive Pre-Med Program in Peru is your gateway to standing out from the crowd. This isn’t just another program. We guarantee structured clinical shadowing and community service hours, tailored to your ambitions.

    You'll be based in the vibrant, ancient city of Cusco. This was once the capital of the Incan Empire and you'll see countless reminders of this as you explore. Cusco is also the gateway to Machu Picchu, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Don’t miss this chance to combine medical work experience with the adventure of a lifetime!

    You’ll partner with highly qualified medical professionals, explore diverse patient populations, and hone your Spanish – all valuable skills that will set you apart.

    Joining this Pre-Med Program is ideal for students hoping to demonstrate the competency requirements set out by the AAMC.

    This program follows a set itinerary with a group of like-minded students. Although not compulsory, intermediate Spanish skills will help you communicate with local staff and patients.

    Who you’ll live with: We’ll try to ensure you share a room with at least one other volunteer or intern, who may even be a medical student themselves. The number of people you live with depends on when you travel. Whoever you meet, they’ll become a friend to explore Peru with.

    Eten & Drank

    Daily meals: Three meals a day are included in the fee. Your host family will cook for you, giving you the energy you need to focus on your Undergrad Medical Internship. They’ll ensure you eat well while tasting the best that Peru has to offer.

Corn, potatoes, and beans are staples that local people love. Peru has also embraced many European dishes, brought over by the Spanish.
