Burns School of Medicine; and is pursuing a Doctor of Medicine Degree (MD) at the University of Hawai'i, John A. Burns School of Medicine. One letter of recommendation from a professor speaking to the student's leadership ability is required to be submitted. The scholarship may be renewed for four years.
