The following contains a list of 10 medical programs open to middle school students. Back when I was a middle school student, I found it very hard to look for medical summer programs, so I compiled a list for you all. You may not be eligible to apply to every program. Some programs require payments however some programs do offer financial assistance if needed as well. Also note if you are not eligible to apply this year remember you still have next year!
