Scholarships:
Need-Based Scholarship Program
The foundation of our programs is the general need-based scholarship program. These awards are offered primarily to first- and second-year medical students, although a few selected programs are open to third-year students. A rigorous application process ensures that assistance is provided to students with the greatest documented need. Scholarships are granted on the basis of financial need as determined by the student's total resources (including parental and spousal support), cost of education, and receipt of other scholarships and grants. Awards have range from $500 to $10,000.
The California Community Service Scholarship Program
(Two types of scholarships available)
The goal of the program is to expose students to the issues affecting the health status of medically underserved communities in California through participation in research or community-based clinical training. It also fosters their commitment to practicing in California. The scholarships, intended to significantly reduce educational debt, are made possible through grants from the San Francisco Foundation and the California Endowment.
