Hello Medical Alumni!

Call to Action / Help our fourth-year medical students!

Due to COVID-19, the 2020-2021 recruitment season for all residency programs will be virtual, making it very difficult for students to assess a program and evaluate the city they’ll call home for the next several years. You can imagine the anxiety this is causing our students but, the good news is, you can help!

In partnership with the Office of Diversity and Multicultural Affairs and the Office of Student Affairs, the BMAA is asking alumni in academic centers across the country to volunteer to provide information about what it is like to train, work and live in their respective areas. Many alumni have already come forward to be included on a contact list for students (thank you!), but we don’t yet have representation from every specialty in each city/state.

To help you identify emails from students, we have asked them to use “BROWN MEDICAL STUDENT MENTEE” in the subject line of the email to you. Please complete this form to sign up to be contacted this interview season!
