25 - Finding Non-Traditional Applicant Resources with Dr. Karen DeOlivares

---

Dr. Karen De Olivares, Director of the Health Professions Advising Center at The University of Texas at Dallas, joins us to discuss the first steps non-traditional applicants need to consider when thinking about a career in medicine, dentistry, or veterinary medicine.

We discuss common topics that come up in her discussions with non-traditional applicants, and she offers suggestions for resources available. These include: 

• NAAHP Advisors: http://www.naahp.org/StudentResources/FindanAdvisor.aspx
