Linking Camps and Campers Since 1995
The University of Alabama offers specialized summer programs such as the Rural Health Scholars, Rural Dental Health Scholars, and Medical Opportunities and Outreach in Rural Education Scholars, designed to support rural Alabama high school students interested in healthcare careers. These programs provide an immersive college experience where students live on campus, take college courses in subjects like chemistry and creative writing, attend seminars, and participate in field trips connected to rural medical and dental health fields. The programs strive to increase the number of rural students pursuing and achieving success in health professional education, ultimately addressing healthcare needs in rural communities. Participants are provided with tuition, books, housing, and meals, and have access to university facilities, though they handle their own transportation and personal costs.
