Competition

What is competition?

HOSA is an international organization that provides over 60 competitive events in all different areas for members to compete in. The competitions are at the area, state, and national levels. Competition is very fun and allows you to meet people from all over Texas, and if you make it far enough, you can go all over America. Winning a competitive event shows your ability to succeed and be assertive in your education and it adds a lot to your college applications and resumes. Colleges will be super impressed with the awards that you win through HOSA. All these events require is a little bit of work each day or each week and ample preparation. Look down below to find out more about competition.
