WELCOME! |

Welcome to
the
Health Careers
Opportunity Program (HCOP).
We're excited that you stopped by!
Now that you’re here, we extend to you an
invitation to take a look at the wonderful programs and activities
HCOP
offers to our high school and college participants. Our program is
located on the campus of West Virginia University in Morgantown, WV.
Would you
like to develop the skills, abilities and knowledge base to become
successful in the health science professions? Would you like to learn
through experiences outside of the classroom by shadowing a physician on
his/her rounds? Would you like to have the advantage of taking practice
health career school entrance tests? What if you could relieve some of the
anxiety of medical school admissions interviews by practicing mock interviews?
You can at HCOP!
