Pre-Professional Organizations

  • Association of Pre-Professional Health-Oriented Students (APHOS)
    APHOS is dedicated to educating future health professionals. The club places emphasis on the professional or graduate school application process and helping members gain acceptance to graduate schools through guest speakers and programs. It seeks to represent all aspects of the health field, including all pre-professional areas, physical therapy, osteopathy and chiropractic.
  • Student Affiliates of the American Chemical Society (SAACS)
    The purpose of this organization shall be to get students excited about chemistry and to inform students of potential careers available to students with chemistry and biochemistry degrees.

Student Organizations

  • Phi Delta Epsilon (PhiDE)
    Hofstra University's chapter of Phi Delta Epsilon is a fraternity that unites students who are pursuing careers in the health professions. This organization is a gateway for students to get involved in the medical community and it serves as a great base for students to network amongst peers with similar interests. Phi Delta Epsilon has ties to various organization such as "The Children's Miracle Network". First-hand experience with such organizations enables the pre-health student to build strong ties to officials in the medical community. These experiences will help the pre-health student grow on a personal level and professionally these experiences will enhance their candidacy when applying to graduate school.
