For the Students, By the Students
The Medical Students’ Association (MSA) is a student-run organization centered on the interests, needs, and concerns of all medical students. Our association’s mandate is to function as a liaison between medical students and the Faculty of Medicine, as well as other medical associations external to Alfaisal University. As the delegates of the medical student body, the MSA’s main priority is to give each and every student the means to voice himself or herself. Striving to serve as the medical students’ pillar of support, MSA organizes a variety of different academic and non-academic activities throughout the year to ensure the best college experience possible. With the aim of fulfilling our responsibility, the MSA is structured specifically to appoint roles to each of its committees.
