Registration for this meeting is open to all medical school admissions officers. This three-day conference brings together a broad representation of admissions professionals from medical schools across the United States, sharing the key tools and strategies that will be critical in meeting the rapidly changing demands of our programs. The conference also provides opportunities to network and build strong, symbiotic professional relationships.

This year, we are sharing the conference facility with the records and registrars group, allowing us to minimize costs while optimizing support of our agenda. Though most of our time will be spent in an exclusive program intended to meet the needs of both new and experienced admissions officers, the two groups will come together for several joint sessions. We will be presenting important data on key topics, including the MCAT review, the pre-medical curriculum, electronic letters of recommendation and other changes in AMCAS, criminal background checks, holistic review, and external influences in the admissions process.

We live in a time of great change, and we face both trying challenges and enormous opportunities in medical school admissions. Working together and collaborating with the staff at the AAMC and our colleagues among the health professions advisors, we can continue to move forward.

I welcome you, on behalf of the GSA Committee on Admissions, to our 2009 Professional Development Conference.

Robert A. Witzburg, M.D.
Chair, GSA Committee on Admissions
