NIH Undergraduate
Scholarship:
Applicable to tuition and other expenses for up to four
years for students committed to careers in biomedical
research and who meet the following criteria:. 1) U.S.
citizen, permanent resident, or national of the U.S;. 2)
full-time student at an accredited institution; 3) GPA of at
least 3.5 on 4 point scale or ranked within the top 5% of
the class; 4) from a disadvantaged background. ‘Disadvantaged
background’ means either your undergraduate institution
classifies you as having exceptional financial need using
the Federal Government's standards, or you come from an
environment that inhibited (but did not prevent) your
obtaining the knowledge, skills, and ability required to
enroll in college. If you do not qualify on the basis of
exceptional financial need, you may still qualify as being
from a disadvantaged background by providing a personal
statement explaining your situation. In return for the
scholarship, recipients commit to two types of service
obligation for each year of scholarship: 10-week summer
service as a paid employee in an NIH research laboratory,
and after graduation, one year of full-time paid employment
in an NIH research laboratory.
