Scholarship Opportunities
Minorities in Medicine Scholarship
Allied Health Practitioners make up nearly 60 percent of all U.S. health care providers who contribute to the well-being of the nation. To increase the number of minorities in this field, three UTSA Alumna have come together and created The Minorities in Medicine Scholarship. This $1000 scholarship is designed to aid and empower an underrepresented community in all disciplines of allied health care.
The scholarship is open to all current minority students at The University of Texas at San Antonio, who are classified as a Junior or Senior. Applicants must also be pursuing a career in the Allied Health Field, have an overall 3.0 GPA, and complete the scholarship application and essay.
