Service Focus

Some students prefer to participate in community or health-focused service. Volunteering through local agencies/non-profits and/or traveling abroad are great ways students can exhibit dedicated service to others. Two-year options like Peace Corps and Teach For America, or one-year options like AmeriCorps and Project Horseshoe Farm, can significantly enhance an application. There are also many established organizations and religious entities that provide medical and dental care. Some specific health-related volunteering options can be found under the Pathway pages and on the Summer & Abroad programs page.
