Alla Mohammed graduated with an Associate of Science degree in biology in fall 2022. A Tennessee Promise and President’s Leadership Society student, he was a member of Phi Theta Kappa honor society and a PTK scholarship recipient. His brother, Safaa Mohammed, is also a Columbia State alum. Next, he is attending Lipscomb University to complete his bachelor’s degree before attending medical school.

“Columbia State has definitely put me out of my comfort zone which I liked,” Mohammed said. “They offered many clubs, and I joined some of them which allowed me to talk to other students. This helped me get out of my shell a bit.”
