Rehab Academic and Mentorship Program

The UCI Health Rehab Academic and Mentorship Program (RAMP) is a two-week intensive program for undergraduate college students interested in a career in rehabilitation services — physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy.

This program aims to provide an enriching experience for students who will shadow therapists in various settings, participate in lectures on important rehabilitation topics and receive guidance in preparing graduate school applications.

RAMP will give students a deeper understanding of therapy and its role in healthcare, as well as help them build connections at a world-class academic medical center.

Applications are open January 1, 2025 - February 3, 2025. We will not be accepting or reviewing applications submitted outside the application window. Due to the high volume of applicants, we will only be sending an email to those selected to interview with us. Thank you for your interest in RAMP.

  • Be enrolled currently in a four-year university
  • Have a minimum 3.3 GPA
  • Be motivated and eager to learn about rehabilitation disciplines
  • Volunteer experience in a hospital setting is a plus, but not required
