This year, we are proud to continue the AMSA Mentor/Mentee program! This program pairs an Upperclassman Mentor and an Underclassman Mentee to create a beneficial dynamic that develops all those involved.
- For 1st and 2nd year students it provides first-hand, personal guidance to the pre-med track and college/medical school.
- For 3rd and 4th years it helps to develop leadership skills and allows the passage of wisdom, while also getting a fresh perspective from younger peers.
This program creates a community and network between the classes of future healthcare professionals.
Applications for the Fall 2023 Mentor/Mentee Program have closed. Stay tuned as registration reopens in the Spring 2024.
