Admission Events
Consider inviting one of our UIWRSO representatives to visit with your college pre-optometry society, pre-health professions club, and other health professions organization.
We routinely offer virtual series on the Optometry profession, unique elements of our Doctor of Optometry program, and admissions preparation. We offer customized information sessions for Pre-Optometry and Pre-Health student organizations. Your group can learn more about the optometric profession and the quality education offered at UIWRSO to include the academic, clinical, and student life experiences. We will also review the admissions process and what it takes to be a competitive applicant.
If you would like to request a virtual session for your organization, please e-mail Mrs. Kristine Benne, Enrollment Management, at benne@uiwtx.edu.
