HI,
My volunteer at hospital and my research will continue long after I submit the application . Should I put the end date when they are done (June 2023) and include all the future hours in my application?

Thank you.

Yes, but you need to clearly label completed hours and separate them from projected future hours. Things can and do change. In particular, a lot of people lose motivation and do not follow through on plans after they receive their first acceptance.

As a result, while you can certainly extend the end date to a point after the application is submitted, schools want to see a breakdown between hours already completed and hours projected to be completed in the future. You can easily do this in the description, or by breaking out multiple start and end dates in the field for each activity, with the last start date being the month you submit the application.
