It’s that time of the year again when we welcome a new class to the SCO campus!
We are excited to welcome 135 fresh faces to campus as they will embark on a 4-year journey in becoming optometrists. Here are a number of historic firsts to note about the class of 2023, including:
- The most women ever for an SCO class at 72%
- The 3.61 mean GPA is the highest ever
- A total of 36 students represent minority populations
- Students come from 31 states, with three international students
The students are being introduced to SCO with a 2-day New Student Orientation that will end with SCO’s White Coat Ceremony, which will be live-streamed on Friday, August 30 at 4:30 pm CST.
