Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Once I’m admitted into the Med-COR Program, how long am I in it?
A: Med-COR’s student commitment generally runs for 4 years, beginning in the 9th grade all the way up to your senior year in high school. But you have up until the 10th grade to apply. Even after graduation, however, you are still a member of the Med-COR family. You can even become a part of the Med-COR staff as a facilitator/tutor.

Q: How often does Med-COR meet?
A: Med-COR students meet two Saturdays per month beginning in the Fall and ending in the Spring, generally from August to May. Students attend 9:00a.m.-1:00p.m. Med-COR is like a few hours of school on a Saturday! And just like school, there are holidays when Med-COR is not in session.

Q: Okay, I know when Med-COR meets, but where is it held?
A: Med-COR is held on USC’s University Park Campus. Class sessions are held in both the Grace Ford Salvatory Hall and Seely G. Mudd building. Both buildings are adjacent to USC’s Cromwell field and can be accessed from the Jefferson & McClintock entrance.

Q.What does Med-COR stand for?
A: Med-COR stands for Medical Counseling, Organizing and Recruiting.
