 College Volunteers

Volunteering is a wonderful experience for students to serve others in a meaningful way, as well as become exposed to the many career opportunities offered in a health care setting.  We appreciate your dedication to serving the patients at UNC Hospitals and look forward to seeing you!

"College" volunteers include undergraduate, graduate, and continuing education students.  Volunteers register each semester so that class schedule changes can be accomodated.  College Volunteer times are assigned on a first come basis according to criteria for each service area.
