The College currently attracts the most exceptional student talent in its history, and we continue to plan to do so in the future. During summer 2012, more than 30 highly qualified students from colleges across the country were invited to learn about the field of optometry at the College, with the hope that they’d each be part of an incoming class. After these students completed the program’s classes and exams, they earned two graduate credits and access to mentors and resources that will be of great assistance as they work toward optometry school.
