Host Program 2019–2020 T HANKS TO THE SUPPORT OF ALUMNI AND FRIENDS of the University of Virginia School of Medicine, we are able to enhance the learning experience of today's students, from providing students with stethoscopes and lab coats to hosting Family Day and mentoring workshops. Another example is our Host Program, which pairs fourth-year students traveling on residency interviews with local UVA medical alumni. Here's what some of the students in the Class of 2020 who participated in this year's program said: "This was a helpful opportunity to me to save some expenses and meet more UVA alums successfully practicing as physicians." "The Host Program is an incredible way to save money and reduce stress on the interview trail, and I am grateful to have met such warm, welcoming UVA alumni." "Within 24 hours of requesting a host for my interview in Philadelphia, I was paired with a recent alum who was very excited to host me and show me around the city! Everything went smoothly leading up to my interview, and it was really nice to feel like I had a little piece of Charlottesville on the road." Thank you for your continued support.
