MAPS (Minority Association of Pre-health
Students) Chapters The Events Annually we have an
SNMA/MAPS mixer at the beginning of the school year in order for the
undergraduates and medical students to become acquainted, and another
end-of-the-year mixer to recap the year’s events. We maintain an open line of
communication between the two organizations through elected liaisons and a
mentorship program. SNMA members have served on MAPS medical student panels
throughout the school year and provided invaluable information on how to
successfully gain acceptance into medical school. Students offer curriculum advice, MCAT
studying strategies, AMCAS and personal statement review. MAPS members also volunteer for several of
our chapter projects and enthusiastically attend the pre-medical conference
hosted by our chapter. They have ongoing community service of their own which
includes a hypertension screening project that targets several communities in
the Future
Plans In addition, the UCLA/Drew
Chapter of SNMA is also the parent chapter for University of California,
Riverside's African Americans United in Science (AAUS),
and we are in the process of establishing or strengthening several other MAPS
chapters at undergraduate institutions in the Southern California area
including: University of California, Santa Barbara, California State
University, Northridge (CSUN), California State University, Long Beach
(CSULB), Loyola Marymount University (LMU),
University of Southern California (USC), and University of California, Irvine
(UCI). More
