2020 Zucker Pipeline Program

The application for the 2020 Zucker Pipeline Program (ZPP) at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell in New York is now open. The mission of the ZPP is to enhance the matriculation of students who are underrepresented in medicine and students who are economically disadvantaged to the Zucker School of Medicine.

The three-year, summer intensive, academic enrichment program is designed to provide high achieving college students who are interested in a career in medicine an opportunity for direct matriculation to the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.

Admitted students will receive a $1,750.00 annual stipend. Housing accommodations on the campus of Hofstra University and one-round trip fare will be provided for out of state students. The 2020 ZPP program dates are June 22 - July 31, 2020.  

Because this program will last for three consecutive summers, only current first-year students are eligible to apply.
