Honors Scholarship: "A Call to Engage in the Academic Lives of Our Students"

To address the issue of debt associated with a medical school education, in 2009 we launched the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Honors Scholarship Initiative. The program provides support to a select number of first-year entering graduate students who have achieved academic excellence and demonstrate leadership and community stewardship during their undergraduate course of study. 

Medical School Education: Education Debt

The nation has a critical need for primary care physicians. However, as the average compensation for primary care physicians is typically lower than that of specialists, primary care physicians may experience more difficulty repaying their medical education loans.

Your scholarship support to an ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ medical student will reduce the debt associated with a medical education and will encourage students to pursue family medicine and the specialties—Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Pediatrics, and Obstetrics/Gynecology—that are the bedrock of medical care.

Your Gift Ensures a Better Future

As Georgia and the United States at large begin to experience a shortage of health care professionals, ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ is responding. We’re expanding class sizes and keeping a sharp focus on our mission to provide medical care to underserved populations.

Your gift to ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ will help our students continue to serve these vulnerable communities and to boost the number of health care professionals in our country.
