Samantha James and Zach Treat Accepted to Bryant Scholars Program

Samantha James and Zach Treat (Exercise Science Juniors) have been accepted to the Bryant Scholars program at the University of Missouri.  Samantha and James are the only two Missouri college students to be accepted into the program from this summer’s interview process.

The Bryant Scholars program is a program designed to encourage young people from rural areas to pursue a medical education.  Studies have shown that students from rural backgrounds are substantially more likely to practice in rural areas than students from urban backgrounds.  This program allows students to receive their undergraduate degrees in their region while preparing for medical school at MU.  Congratulations on your acceptance, Samantha and Zach!
