Will I be able to include ECs done at the graduate level in addition to those done during my undergrad?

I'm wondering because a lot of my shadowing and volunteer hours will come from my two years of graduate work (PharmD).

ECs below if anyone would be willing to provide comments on them/critique/suggest other helpful experience.


Undergrad
- research project: 200+ hours, lab based, non-published, dept. honors
- Community Care Clinic – indigent population – 10 volunteer hours
- 12 hours volunteering with Kroger – wellness clinics, BPs, glucose test
- Other clinical pharmacy experiences throughout curriculum, interacting with other health professionals
- 40 hours volunteering at summer camp – construction work
- University concert band member, 2 years
- Freelance musician for a few performances
- 120 hours campus church volunteer
- 10 hours – Global connections volunteer, providing furniture to international students

Graduate
- Volunteering more hours at Community Care Clinic (hopefully 40+)
- 40 hours volunteering at SOS Memphis – construction work, interacting with people
- Shadowing primary care physician at Community Care Clinic (roughly 10 total hours)
- Shadowing anesthesiologist - 4-8 hours
- 500+ hours campus church volunteer

- Shadowing ER physician - TBA
- Hospital volunteer - TBA
 
Absolutely, you can include whatever you think is relevant to your app (and certainly the ECs you have done most recently are probably the MOST relevant)
