Clinical and Volunteer Experience

An important aspect in the preparation for professional school applications is clinical and volunteer experience. Syracuse University students are at a great advantage because the university is located in close proximity to many healthcare facilities. Once established academically, pre-health students are encouraged to explore the medical community. Below is a small sampling of local organizations that may offer clinical and volunteer experience:
