Medical Student Council

StuCo offers both Residency and Non-Residency Interest Groups. Each residency specialty has a Residency Interest Group where they host meetings that explore possible career paths, bring in guest speakers and offer Post-Match advice for other rising classes beginning the Matching process. Non-Residency Interest Groups host meetings that enhance the student experience whether it's philanthropic work, volunteering or joining together with students of similar identities.
