AMA student leadership Spring Race to Recruit
Join the Medical Student Outreach Program (MSOP) team in our Spring Race to Recruit. From January through April, let’s race to recruit as many students as we can to join the AMA. The more students who join the AMA this spring, the further we progress in our race together.
Students involved in leadership positions with the AMA will be eligible to participate and receive national recognition for their recruitment work this season. This opportunity for leaders will run January through April. Your success in the Spring Race to Recruit will help you have a strong spring commission check!
How to participate and be recognized
Region Champion
The AMA Medical Student Section (MSS) is split into seven geographic regions. Each month, the region with the highest increase in the percentage of M1s student members will be recognized as the Region Champion of the Month. The region’s region chair and region recruitment chair will also be recognized, including recognition on the AMA website.
Exceptional Achievements in School Recruitment
Beyond regional recognition, individual schools are eligible to be recognized for their efforts in growing M1 student membership on their campus. Each month, the school that has recruited the highest number of new M1 members through MSOP will be recognized with the Exceptional Achievement in School Recruitment. Schools can check their progress in the MSOP Dashboard.
Bonus! Schools recognized for their recruitment efforts will be eligible to request additional funding through the Section Involvement Grant program for engagement, community service or recruitment.
