GROW APPLICATION

The GROW internship application for this summer is out!
The trip will most likely occur mid/late May through early June. It is a great opportunity for you to understand first hand what GlobeMed is all about, to work with our partner and community in Siuna, Nicaragua, and to share your experiences with the rest of the club and campus.

You can access the application here (as a GoogleDoc).
Click File > Download Original before you start filling it out.

Applications are due by February 9th.

I hope you guys will all apply!

 You can do it!
