Today’s #RolemodelMonday is just 13 years old and has already been accepted into the University of Alabama's Heersink School of Medicine for 2024 . Meet Alena Analeigh Wicker! Alena is the youngest African American in U.S. History Accepted into Med School! ”I graduated High school LAST YEAR at 12 years old and here I am one year later I've been accepted into Med School at 13. I'm a junior in college," she wrote. "Statistics would have said I never would have made it. A little black girl adopted from Fontana California." So proud of you and excited to see all you accomplish in Med School!
