OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
Granting scholarships to podiatry students.
- Since podiatrist school graduates are not subject to licensure by Composite State Board of Medical Examiners (now Georgia Composite Medical Board), the educational programs of such schools do not meet one of the primary qualifications upon which scholarships are granted; thus, the State Medical Education Board may not legally grant scholarships to applicants in field of podiatry. 1982 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 82-62.
