Thank you for your interest in applying to EST!

Applications are now closed for 2024.

We invite all first-year undergraduate WashU students regardless of experience and all second-year undergraduate WashU students who already have an EMT-B license to apply. For second-year undergraduates, EMT licensure is required for our adjusted onboarding training, and to ensure both you and the campus get the most out of your contribution to the team.

We unfortunately do not accept any third or fourth year WashU student applications.

The written questions for 2024 were as follows:

• Why EST? (What do you intend to bring to EST? What do you intend to get out of EST?)
• Have you ever been in a situation where you thought it would be better to be dishonest? What did you end up doing? Why?
• Describe a time when a decision required you to weigh emotions against rational thinking. What factors influenced your choice? What did you end up doing?

After the written application, we hold a minimum of two invite-only in-person interview rounds. During years where we have a high volume of applications and need to further narrow applicants to fulfill the final roster we take each year, we organize a third round of interviews.

Please visit our FAQs page for more information. If you find that you still have questions, feel free to contact the selections committee at estselections@gmail.com.
