Entire Class of Doctors Graduates Debt-Free

Orlando Sentinel

he University of Central Florida College of Medicine held the graduation for its first class of medical students, the first time an entire class received free tuition, the Orlando Sentinel reported. Because the competition for entry was fierce, they were high achievers, scoring above the national average on final tests, the dean said. 

Originally founded in December 2006 as an independent grassroots publication dedicated to coverage of health issues in Florida, Health News Florida was acquired by WUSF Public Media in September 2012.
