| MAPS Program
One of the activities that Co-President Vandy Gaffney
spearheads is the Minority Association of Pre-medical Students (MAPS) program. SNMA's MAPS program offers guidance for
undergraduate students interested in pursing careers in medicine. Undergraduates
are provided with information on how to choose a curriculum and how to
excel academically. In addition, SNMA members work with undergraduates
advising them about the medical school application process and the medical
school admissions test. More importantly, SNMA members serve as mentors
to undergraduate students helping them successfully matriculate into medical
school. Currently, the vice president of the MUSC SNMA chapter is trying
to establish a city-wide MAPS program that will include the College of Charleston and Citadel. Look for more
information on the progress of this mission.
