College Student Volunteer Placement Options

Volunteer Services has many great placements for volunteers interested in pursuing a career in the medical or health sciences field. Not all our student placements may be available, and while no service area can be guaranteed in advance, our goal is to make the best possible service matches based on our needs and the interests of each one of our volunteers.
