Student Alumni Partnership Program

The Student Alumni Partnership Program (SAPP) connects students with alumni for purposes of career exploration.

As SAPP members, alumni have the opportunity to provide students with shadowing experiences, career advice, and hosting (in their home) during residency interviews. Membership also fosters networking with fellow alumni.

The SAPP program was a wonderful way to find alumni in Cincinnati. They helped me with housing recommendations and introduced me to the city. I was overwhelmed by their kindness!
