<p class="MsoNormal">Dear UCR Faculty,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Each year UC Riverside School of Medicine conducts interviews for the Early Assurance Program (EAP). Candidates participate in Multiple-Mini Interviews (MMI), rotating through a circuit of staff, faculty and community interviewers, answering
a variety of ethical, social, cultural, and clinical-based questions. Interviewers are require to score each candidate on the basis of their answers to the questions. Your scores are then reviewed by the UCR SOM Admissions Committee for final selections of
the incoming medical students.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Faculty members are invited to sign up for this event. <span style="color:black">
Interviews will be held on <b><i><u>Tuesday, May 10<sup>th</sup>, 5:30pm-8:30pm</u></i></b> via Zoom</span>
<span style="color:black">with time commitments of no more than 3 hours. Please sign up using the link below no later than today,
<i><u>Wednesday, May 4<sup>th</sup> no later than 6:00pm.</u></i> **Note: Interview slots are limited. EAP Sign up link:

<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>Interviews will take place in the Zoom breakout rooms. You and one candidate will enter the breakout room where each interviewer will share one pre-recorded question to be answered by the candidate. At this period you will evaluate
the candidate based on their response to the question. You will continue this process until every candidate has been interviewed. ** More information will be provided after sign ups.<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">For more information on the Early Assurance Program, please click the link below to learn about the admission requirements. I have also included a link to the EAP student panel that we conducted a few months ago
so you can get an idea of how students prepare to apply to the program. The panelists are comprised of four current medical students and one recent admit who entered the medical program through EAP.
