The exact positions available will vary based on the university, and the application process will be facilitated by your on-campus Chapter, not MEDLIFE HQ. Contact your university or high school Coach for more.

These responsibilities include serving as a resource for new and existing Chapters, helping recruit new MEDLIFErs, fundraising, planning Service Learning Trips, and expanding the MEDLIFE Movement in general. They are the liaison between MEDLIFE HQ and our individual Chapters.
