Join HOSA: an organization for future health professionals

Message from WVU Chapter of HOSA-Future Health Professionals President, Mr. Shannon Brunzo-Hager: 

HOSA is an international organization that unites aspiring healthcare professionals. Unlike clubs such as Pre-Med and Pre-Pharmacy (which are still great organizations in their defense) that are geared towards a specific profession, HOSA is inclusive of all health professions from dentistry to nursing to even veterinary sciences. HOSA provides students with many scholarship and internship opportunities in various aspects of the healthcare field. HOSA also has over 70 competitions you can participate in at regional, state, and international levels! 

So far we have hosted one general meeting with the members who have already joined and with their suggestions, we have many plans for the chapter. We will be setting up group chats and zoom sessions for people in the same classes so everyone can study with each other, hosting events to practice for the competitions of your choice, recruiting speakers from various fields to provide information to our members, and so much more. If there is something you want us to do, then let us know and we will do our best to make it happen! I hope this helps guide your decision to join. If you would like to join, please just go to our WVUENGAGE page and request a membership. More information, such as how to pay dues, will be sent from there.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to either me or the WVU HOSA email: westvirginiauhosa@gmail.com. Also, follow us on Instagram @wvuhosa for up to date information as we begin to host more events.

Sincerely,

Mr. Shannon Brunzo-Hager, President | WVU Chapter of HOSA-Future Health Professionals
