INTEREST GROUP APPLICATIONS
​​
Interest Group Funding Allocation has changed for the 2025-2026 school year. NOSMUSC is implementing a new pilot project to improve the use of funds. The project is outlined here and for additional information please contact sc.vpinternal@nosm.ca.​
​
Please see the application here to apply for Interest Group Funding.
​
The NOSMUSC sponsors a variety of clubs and interest groups so our learners can explore different medical specialties and special topics in healthcare. Information on the current NOSMUSC-approved student groups are listed below.
​
There are 2 primary ways you can be involved in an interest group:
-
General Member: Members attend events organized by the interest group.
-
Executive Member: If you are interested in taking on more a leadership role for a specific interest group, please email the contact for that specific interest group.
Note that to participate either as an executive or general member requires that your fees for NOSMUSC be paid. For information regarding student fee payments please visit our Student Council Fees section.​
