MANHATTAN, N.Y. – Aug. 12, 2020 – PRLog — American University of Antigua (AUA) College of Medicine is proud to announce an agreement with Schreiner University in Kerrville, Texas.

“Schreiner is delighted to form a partnership with AUA, because we see the tremendous opportunities for our students,” said Diana K. Comuzzie, PhD, Developer of the Health Professions Program at Schreiner University. “I have been impressed with the success metrics I have seen in AUA graduates, and those closely align with the Schreiner focus on student success. Together, we can do great things to educate tomorrow’s physicians.”

Graduates of Schreiner will also be eligible for a Preferred Partner Grant, in addition to any scholarships
earned at AUA.

“Schreiner University has been serving Texas students for nearly 100 years, and we’re honored to count this top-tier university as our first academic partner in the Lone Star State,” said Gerald J. Wargo, Jr., AUA’s Associate Vice President of Enrollment Management. “Schreiner is well known for providing a high-quality education, and I look forward to meeting some of the school’s talented students in the future.”
