Hi, thanks for the reply. I would love a school that has plenty of research opportunities. Not sure what specialty I want to do, but want to keep my options open. As for volunteering with refugees, I don't want to go into too much detail for privacy, but it was 150 hours in total.
Also, I thought that any volunteering or service-related activities that are not clinical could be classified as non-clinical volunteering, so would peer advisor and tutoring not count? Or, is it only traditional volunteering like soup kitchen, homeless shelter, etc?
