Annie, Pre-College Online Immersion student from NC“I would highly recommend the Wake Forest Summer Immersion [Program] to anyone interested. For me, it gave me a better understanding of the process of being a doctor and taking care of a patient. I have always loved medicine, but this further affirmed how much I would like to do this as a career.”
