Tuition Guarantee Program

In 2007, the UK College of Medicine became one of four medical school programs in the nation to offer a tuition guarantee program. Thus, each entering class is guaranteed a set tuition that will remain constant for the four years they are enrolled in medical school. This was a significant step toward maintaining the affordability of a medical education.
