Volunteer opportunities for Pre
Health students
Participating in community activity
(volunteerism) is important to admissions
committees in all of the professional health care
fields. Medicine is a service profession, and
committees want to be sure that candidates have
demonstrated their commitment to the less
fortunate in our society. In addition to serving
your community, volunteering with a local hospital
or EMT Service gives you the opportunity to
experience the medical field first-hand. This will
help to solidify your desire to attend medical
school while building upon your knowledge and
skills.
