Hey all,

I was accepted into the Peace Corps but due to COVID19, the mission was suspended. Can I still put this under the activities on the AAMC app? I never actually got to fly out but its kind of hard to get into so i was wondering if it would help my application.

I received Fulbright, but it was postponed (possibly cancelled). I listed it under honors/awards/recognition, and I think you should list Peace Corps as such too! It's def something competitive that you won, and that should be recognized 🙂

When was your Fulbright yo have started?

Were Fulbrights to all parts of the world cancelled or just the most Covid infected?

You decided against waiting until the program reopens?

You can include it if you like, but having never served, it adds no value to your application.
