Due to donor instructions, medical scholarships only available for MD or DO candidates.

Please use our to apply for a 24-25 academic year scholarship. Deadline for applying is November 18, 2024. Contact the Office of Student Aid with any questions.

Prior to completing your application, please confirm with your medical school the name and address to which the check should be mailed if you are awarded a scholarship.

Each year the Student Aid Committee at ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø±¬ÍøÕ¾ College awards financial assistance from these funds to students who are in need of student aid and who are attending medical school in an MD or DO program. The committee meets to review applications at the end of January and awards are mailed to medical school programs shortly thereafter. There are no restrictions concerning renewal of awards from one year to the next. Even though committee decisions vary somewhat from year to year depending upon the income that the funds earn and the number of candidates applying for aid, we can usually provide assistance to approximately forty students with individual awards ranging from $900 to $5,000.
