GEMS & ULEAD

I chose UofL because it was the only school I looked at that had the specific intersectionality between STEM and humanities that I wanted in a major: Bioethics, a mixture of health and ethics. Plus, I wanted to be part of the amazing GEMS Program that guarantees entrance into UofL's School of Medicine.
