The Northern Kentucky Medical Society (NKMS) Foundation is pleased to announce that it has established a scholarship with the University of Louisville School of Medicine. The scholarship will be awarded each year to a third or fourth year student in good academic standing at the School of Medicine. Additionally, the student must be a Kentucky resident from Boone, Campbell or Kenton County. Furthermore, the student must express a desire to practice medicine in Boone, Campbell, or Kenton County upon completion of medical school and any postdoctoral training.
The NMKS Foundation has maintained a similar scholarship with the University of Kentucky for several years. Because that scholarship had been so successful, the NKMS Foundation endeavored to expand its scholarship program to the University of Louisville. With the help of its generous supporters, the NKMS Foundation has been able to fund this additional scholarship. The NKMS Foundation is honored to support students from this area who desire to return home and serve our community.
The NKMS Foundation is further pleased to announce that Robert Pugh has been chosen as the first recipient of the NKMS Foundation Scholarship at the University of Louisville.
