Pikeville College May Have Scholarship Funds
KENTUCKY...
The Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority says students have until July 1 to apply for the Osteopathic Medicine Scholarship. The amount of the scholarship would be equal to the difference between the average in-state tuition charged at the state medical schools and the tuition charged at the Pikeville College School of Osteopathic Medicine. One requirement of the scholarship is that the recipient practice 2,000 hours of osteopathic medicine in Kentucky for each year they receive the scholarship. The Pikeville school's Web site says osteopathic physicians have full practice rights in all 50 states and most go into primary care in medically underserved areas.
