Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) is a national medical honor society that celebrates outstanding achievement and leadership in medicine. At WCM, we take great care in our selection process. Guided by the AOA bylaws and a rigorous institutional review, students are chosen based on a holistic set of qualities: distinguished academic performance, leadership ability, service to the institution and community, professionalism, and attributes that signal exceptional promise in the field of medicine.
The WCM Chapter of AOA is very active with engagement in several AOA programs, including the Carolyn L. Kuckein Student Research Fellowships, Medical Student Service Leadership Project Grant, Robert J. Glaser Distinguished Teacher Award, Richard L. Byyny Fellow in Leadership, Helen H. Glaser Student Essay Award, and the Visiting Professorship program.
Below are the AOA inductees of the Weill Cornell Medicine Chapter of the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. This honor represents one of the many ways WCM recognizes the excellence and promise of our medical students.
