Medical students have to demonstrate resilience, flexibility, and grit in order to succeed in their field and be the best healthcare professionals they can be. 

Students who work while pursuing their degree learn hard work and time management better than anyone, balancing their academic and professional responsibilities and juggling their many duties. While this experience is a unique struggle, the balancing act prepares students for the fast-paced, demanding world of medicine.

This scholarship seeks to support students who are pursuing higher education in order to enter the field of medicine.

Any undergraduate or graduate student who is studying medicine may apply for this scholarship, but applicants who are pursuing women’s health and those who work while in school are preferred.

To apply, describe your passion for healthcare and what makes your experiences unique to help the population you want to serve.
