Mission
Alpha Epsilon Delta (AED) at Louisiana State University is a pre-professional health honor society dedicated to pre-medical students. AED seeks to guide and support pre-medical students on their journey to becoming medical professionals. In addition to providing students with the keys to success during both undergraduate and professional schooling, we offer many volunteer opportunities to serve those most vulnerable in our Baton Rouge community.

AED holds meetings every two weeks, where we expose students to different aspects of the medical field. At each meeting, guest speakers join us from across the state to share why they pursued medicine and share advice on how to be a successful medical professional. These speakers include medical students, residents, and physicians of numerous specialties, including orthopedic surgery, gastroenterology, psychiatry, cardiology, pediatrics, dermatology, infectious diseases, and more. Moreover, our members can meet and network with the Deans from LSU New Orleans and LSU Shreveport medical schools at our Dean's Convocation. The deans detail their respective schools and what they look for in applicants, followed by a question and answer session. We also host a Mock Interview with one of the Deans to provide our students with a glimpse into what the medical school interview is like. Additionally, we host a meeting with LSU's Pre-Medical Review Committee, a very important resource for those students looking to apply to medical school. While we strive to expose our members to many aspects of the medical field, we also emphasize the importance of service within our organization; we equip our members with plenty of service opportunities at local hospitals, nursing homes, cancer services centers, youth organizations, public schools, and many more!
