"Junior Jumpstart was a fun and useful way to end junior year. As someone applying to graduate/medical school, it was timely advice for kicking off application season. There was a great variety of sessions available — even (or perhaps especially) if you don't know what you want to do with your engineering degree, there will be speakers that get your ideas flowing and point you toward many other resources. If that's not enough to convince you, the speakers were entertaining, there was free food, and they had a raffle with great prizes (I won a $50 Visa gift card)," said Kelly Hill, Biomedical Engineering class of 2012.
Registration is $40 and includes all materials, breakfast, lunch and the networking reception. The deadline for early registration is March 31. Students should register online: juniorjumpstart.wustl.edu.
