Every summer, more than 1,000 teens leave an Outset campus with new friendships, hands-on medical experience, and a clearer sense of their future. Here's what they (and their parents) have to say.
My daughter left UNC yesterday and I've never seen her happier. She felt she had an authentic opportunity to get to know her group and loved everything — from the sessions to the evening events. She's walking away with ideas on pathways for college, newfound confidence, and new friends.

From my perspective as a parent, the sign-up process and overall communication with Outset were fantastic. Lawson and his team were incredibly responsive… She didn't want to leave on the final day. Outset was absolutely worth the investment.
My daughter went to Outset at UNC Chapel Hill this summer. She absolutely loved it! Her chosen specialty was pediatrics, and Outset helped her explore what a day in the life of a pediatrician looks like.
My son went to Chapel Hill last week for the Anesthesia course. He loved the experience. It solidified in his mind about his career path. Thanks for providing this experience.
Our daughter just attended camp with Outset at UCLA and learned so much from the lectures and hands-on simulations. She came out of the camp with an understanding of what to expect when applying for med school, taking the MCAT and what med school would be like.
My daughter just attended Outset UCLA Pediatric track. She went in with an open mind, as her primary choice was neurosurgeon. She now expressed a genuine interest in Pediatric Neurosurgeon. Thank you for providing such an enriching experience.
My daughter just finished up her week at UNC. She absolutely loved the experience from lectures, sessions and hands on stimulation. She was advised on how to safely move on the path of becoming a Pharmacist.
Incredible hands-on, informative and very insightful week! A nice view into the process of training to become a doctor with engaging staff from residents to attendings. Would absolutely send anyone I know who is interested in medicine to Outset.
Our daughter attended the Outset program at Columbia and she had an unforgettable experience! She was not sure about medicine as her future career, but this program helped her fall in love with it.
My daughter attended the Outset program in the Neurosurgery track at UNC. It was a fantastic experience — the right balance of academic exposure and real connection with the staff and other students.
Outset was an incredible experience. I gained hands-on exposure to various medical fields, worked alongside people who had the same passion for medicine as I do, and connected with peers who share my interests.
What an amazing experience for our daughter. She chose general surgery because they didn't offer dermatology but it let her explore a different track and expand her interests. Would highly recommend.
One of the best things I have ever done was go to Outset! The counselors were so motivational and also really helpful. They were all in pre-med, so they told me how their path went. Outset really helped me understand how to structure my future.
I LOVED this experience at UNC-Chapel Hill in the field of pediatrics! Each experience was designed to help focus our vocation, and the simulations made it feel real.
