Adding Volunteer Hours
Once you have signed up for the Top Gun program, you will then have the ability to upload volunteer hours.
Information required to add hours:
- Title of volunteer hours (i.e. "Community Soccer Game")
- Number of hours earned
- Supervisor Name
- Supervisor Email
- Signed document verifying hours worked
Community Service and Sport related volunteer and/or internship work completed prior to enrollment at Texas A&M University cannot be counted towards hours for Top Gun status.
Sport Industry hours include service completed for an organization in the world of sports. Please contact a Top Gun director for clarification on what may or may not count as Sport Industry hours.
Community Service hours include service completed for an organization that benefits its community. Examples include Boys and Girls Club, March of Dimes, etc. An extensive, but not comprehensive list of BCS organizations that need volunteers can be found here.
You may add hours through the "Add Hours" link in the main menu.
