      "I was attracted to this program because of its high teaching and global health opportunities. Global health is a field that I am passionate about and intends to pursue after completing my degree, so to have found a school that offers that to its students sparked my interest. As an individual from a diverse background, UIC's commitment to diversity reassured me that it’d be a place I could call home. I love that UIC provides its students with clinical placement, preceptorship, and high research standards."
