Does the school offer a mentoring program for students

sister program. We match new students with first year students and we try and
put married/married with kids with first year students that are married/married
with kids together.
What maternity leave options are available to women
students? Students may take a leave of absence. They should check with student
services for all procedural aspects of such a request.
Please describe any other options or services available
for students with families and/or pregnant or nursing mothers. We have a
very supportive faculty, staff and student body. Everyone pulls for one another
and the competition is healthy. It is the students' against the material, not
student against student. This lenads to a "we are in this together"
approach to the medical program.
Average number of class hours per day: We have two
curriculums. It will vary. Anywhere from 4 to 8 hours a day.

In the first twi years there are approximately 20+ hours a month (this includes
early clinical contact and simulated patient experiences).

Does the school offer (formally or informally) the opportunity
