Our mission & vision

Our mission is to help the next generation of North Carolina physicians prepare for the pre-med path. Our vision is to be the leading pre-med program for North Carolina high school students with a serious interest in medical careers.

We understand that the path to becoming a physician, nurse, PA, or other healthcare practitioner is not easy. Many students are interested in the medical path only to drop out during pre-med courses in college. We believe this often due to a lack of preparation, planning, and guidance for students on the medical path.

Outset was founded to help prepare students for the pre-med path. We are focused on practical, real guidance on how medical education really works.

The values that drive us forward.

We have three core values that inform everything we do at Outset. These values are simple, but every decision we make about programming or strategy is guided by these principles.

Student Safety

Our first value as a company will always be the safety of our students & programs.

Practical Career Guidance

We want every student to leave Outset with real, practical guidance for the pre-med path.

Fun & Community

We want students to build a network and friendships with other NC pre-meds.

Leadership team

Our leadership and advisors team is made of program operators, educators, and physicians with decades of experience building and guiding pre-med programs.
