Welcome

Welcome to the website of the American Podiatric Medical Student Association of NYCPM. As the premier podiatric medical school, The New York College of Podiatric Medicine has graduated more than 25% of all active podiatrists in the nation. The school is located in New York City where many of the most prestigious health care institutions in the world are found. NYCPM has established affiliation with many of these, including Columbia University College of Physicians & Surgeons and the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation. In such a prestigious institution an organization serves to voice the concerns ofthe students on a national level, the APMSA.

The American Podiatric Medical Student Association (APMSA) is the official national organization representing all students enrolled at the eight colleges of the podiatric medicine across the U.S. By virtue of the enrollment at a college of podiatric medicine, all students are members of the Association. APMSA functions to provide a forum to discuss problems, to further the profession of podiatry on a national level, and to establish the means for obtaining desired goals.

APMSA believes it is the professional responsibility of the podiatric medical student to unite in the common cause of maintaining the high standards of podiatric medical education, initiating positive changes within the profession and continually striving for improvement in our nation’s podiatric health care delivery. The leaders of the Association urge you to participate in the future of podiatric medicine, since it is your future.
