M1 and M2 Student Volunteers

A lottery system is used for M1/M2 volunteer sign-ups.

How to Sign Up:

Sign up for the lottery on the volunteer spreadsheet using the link sent by the Student Volunteer Coordinator on the Tuesday before clinic day.
On Wednesday evening, check your email and the volunteer spreadsheet to see if you have been randomly selected to volunteer or added to the waitlist.
Email the Student Volunteer Coordinator if you are no longer able to volunteer.
Students on the waitlist will be notified as spots open up.
