Modlin and Powell Selected as Still Scholars

Aurora Powell (left) and Katy Modlin (right) have recently been selected as Still Scholars.  Aurora and Katy are both Junior Health Science majors. Congratulations on this outstanding achievement!

The Still Scholars, Pre-Osteopathic Program is designed to provide admission opportunities to outstanding students of Truman State University who have as their goal to become Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine. The program is conducted under joint collaboration of Truman State University and A.T. Still University (ATSU), Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (KCOM).

Under this program, Truman State University students apply to the Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine at the end of their sophomore year. A maximum of five students will be awarded reserved admissions to KCOM at the beginning of their junior year at Truman State University. Students complete their junior and senior year earning a BA/BS degree prior to matriculating to KCOM.  The advantage for those students accepted at the end of their sophomore year is to have a reserved seat in KCOM’s entering class upon graduation from Truman State University.
