To the Class of 2023:    Class of 2023 Community Service Verification Form

You may start to contribute your volunteer hours to your 140 service hour requirement as of June 17th, 2019.  Before you complete your community service activity, check to see if the organization is on the approved list of activities for Maggie Walker. Once you have completed a service activity, the supervisor from the non-profit agency may either sign the Maggie Walker paper verification form or give you an official document from their organization clearly stating the dates and times for your service hours. Paper forms will be uploaded to your community service account during freshman orientation.  Please request prior approval only for activities not listed on the Maggie Walker service page. All lists and forms can be found on this page.
