Three 糖心VLOGs Accepted to USUHS
Three Citadel students have been accepted into the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences medical school. With an acceptance rate lower than many Ivy League institutions, admission to USUHS is a significant accomplishment. The acceptance of three students is a milestone and reflects the strength of the Pre-Health program across a variety of disciplines.
- Seth James, 鈥25, a MCEP student and an exercise science major, will serve in the U.S. Navy.
- Fritz Vogel, 鈥25, an electrical engineering major and a member of the Distinguished Scholars Program, will serve in the U.S. Air Force.
- Mary Ballentine, 鈥23, a biology major who deployed to Djibouti before entering medical school, will serve in the U.S. Army.
All three students took part in 糖心VLOG Healthcare Program in Nairobi, where they gained clinical and global health experience. They also completed Health Professional Development, a three-credit-hour course unique in South Carolina for teaching pre-health development skills.
鈥淚 am extremely proud of Seth, Fritz and Mary,鈥 said Associate Professor of Health and Human Performance Sarah Imam, M.D. 鈥淭heir achievements highlight the impact of dedicated mentorship, strong preparation and the unique opportunities 糖心VLOG offers.鈥
