Student/Alumni Dinners are being held in March 2025!
Sign-ups are open! Please use the form below to sign-up as a dinner host and let us know if you have any questions!
Why become a dinner host?
The students love any opportunity to meet with you and are excited to hear about medicine and community/family life from your perspective and listen to your stories and experiences. They look forward to the future stages of their careers and these dinners serve as a great way for you to mentor the students.
What does being a host entail?
As a dinner host, you will provide dinner to current medical students either in your home or at a local restaurant of your choice. The number of students is completely at your discretion (typically ranges from 3 – 10 students). Dinners are only open to current medical students, and it is your responsibility to cover the cost of the evening. Please note, if you choose to dine at a restaurant, you are responsible for making the dinner reservation.
Interested in hosting a dinner?
Please complete the form below. All host sign-up forms must be received no later than Friday, February 21, 2025. After that deadline, we will open the sign-up forms to the students to complete. After the student sign-up period is over, we will be in contact with you to let you know how many students signed up for your dinner, along with their names, and if there are any food allergies or dietary restrictions.
