To participate in the Research Associate Program,                                                   each RA must have a signed letter of endorsement from their Health Professions Adviser on official college stationary.

This does not mean a letter of recommendation or anything so extensive.

It is fine to copy and paste the following,                                                                    filling in the appropriate spaces and choosing the appropriate descriptors:

"__________________ is a student in good standing at ________________ college/university.

He/She is looking toward the possibility of a career in the health professions.

He/She has my endorsement to serve as a Research Associate in the Emergency Department of St. Vincent's Medical Center."

Please send this letter of endorsement as a PDF file addressed to:      svmc.recruiting@raprogram.org
