The admissions team would like to understand what drives your pursuit of a career in the medical field. Your core passion will keep you going on the most challenging days while attending Kansas City University's COM program. This passion will also be what grounds you on the most difficult day at work.
Perhaps you are driven by excellent job prospects or the stability that a career in medicine could provide. Maybe it's your passion to be of service to others by nurturing their health. Whatever drives your interest, make sure the admissions team at KCU can feel your love for a career path in the medical field. If you feel comfortable doing so, share a personal story that ties into your passion for becoming a medical community member.

"If I had to pinpoint one main driver, I would say that improving the health of others is the most significant. I desire the opportunity to improve the health and lives of people in my care and my community. The most significant interactions have been when I am of service to others. As a medical professional, I will put all my efforts into bettering the lives of others. Everyone deserves great health care, and I plan to live that mantra by being the best at what I do, and giving my all to my patients, every day."
