Comment by JAIME OSWALDO MONTOYA GUZMAN on July 12, 2011 at 8:57am: Some of you have been commenting about volunteering. That is one of the best parts of the program and I strongly recommend you to participate in as many volunteering activities as you can. In the UGRAD program volunteering and a short internship are requirements. Everyone will work sooner or later in life. But as for volunteering, that is a culture you need to develop and the UGRAD program encourages to do that. You will enjoy it and it will give you happiness and satisfaction to help others.

Comment by Otabek on July 12, 2011 at 7:54am: Hey everyone, is there any 2011-2012 UGRAD finalists here? I was wondering if someone got placed in Missouri?

Comment by Talal Raza on July 12, 2011 at 7:45am: Hi NAn! yep! its kinda thing that gives you an internal satisfaction!:)

Comment by Nan Khin May on July 9, 2011 at 1:56pm: Hi Talal, It is true that we love volunteering. I have volunteered at many places after my Ugrad program. From there, I met and made new friends and I volunteer at least once a month at 1-day program such as raising funds organization. I am sure you will find plenty of organizations need our little help which means a lot to everyone. Let's keep it up! :)

Comment by Thao Thu Nguyen on July 9, 2011 at 12:04pm: Hi Yan Han, I had a Chinese friend whom I met at Endicott College under the Global UGRAD. I will message you her email address :)
