Corps: Volunteers live at level of community
Continued from page 3
development, agriculture, environ
ment, business development, infor
mation technology and health and
HIV/AIDS education.
Volunteers are paid for their work at
a living allowance that allows them to
live at the same level as the people in
the community they are serving in.
“The stipend is roughly equal to the
basic standard of living in that coun
try,” Schrock said.
They also receive a total of 48 vaca
tion days. Volunteers receive $6,000 to
help them transition back into life in
the United States.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years
old, although the average age of volun
teers is 29, and 97 percent of current
volunteers have at least an undergrad
uate degree. Without a degree, volun
teers must have significant work expe
rience in a specific area.
Serving in the Peace Corps is of
ten a good transition for students
who are between undergraduate
and graduate schools, or between
school and a career. Schrock said
the Peace Corps is also a good step
ping stone for those interested in
international studies.
Students interested in joining the
Peace Corps after graduation should
begin the application process the end
of their junior year or the beginning of
their senior year because the process
takes six to 12 months from the time
the application is submitted until the
time when training begins.
Schrock will hold an informational
meeting open to all students on
Thursday at 6 p.m. in the EMU
International Lounge.
