To join Longhorn EMS, you must submit a Responder Information Sheet (RIS) and pay dues by designated deadline to be considered a member. The Responder Information Sheet has the following components: demographic information, immunizations, certifications/licensures, and a letter of intent. For more information regarding the RIS, please view the "Apply Here!" page.
Yes, we charge 45$ for the year of 30$ for a semester!
For the Fall 2025 semester, Longhorn EMS meetings will be biweekly Thursdays at 7pm at JES A121A. To remain an active member of Longhorn EMS, you must attend 4 out of the 7 GMs, but we highly encourage you to attend all of the GMs!
If you are not able to make it to a general meeting, you must fill out the GM Makeup Form no later than Mondays following the Thursday GM at 11:59pm. The GM Makeup Form will be found on the Discord announcements channel following the conclusion of the GM. It will require you to review the GM slides to answer the associated questions. We prefer every member to attend our GMs in person to get the most hands-on experience, however if you have a recurring conflict with the GM time, you may submit as many GM makeup forms as needed to fulfill your active member status. To remain an active member, you must have 4 GM points (this can come from either attending the GM or completing the GM makeup quiz).
To update your RIS, use the same RIS application link and only fill in the necessary fields. For example, if you needed to only add a FEMA license, you need to fill out your name, eid, and attach only the FEMA license to the RIS submission. We will update your file on our end after submission.
Longhorn EMS uses Discord to communicate with all members. The link to join our Discord can be found on the Member page on this website. Once you join Discord, you must change your profile name to your first and last name to be added to the channels.
