Scholarships

All applicants for admission to UT Southwestern medical school are considered for scholarship by the Scholarship Committee. A separate application for scholarship is not necessary. The members and chair of the Scholarship Committee are appointed by the Dean. 

The Scholarship Committee considers and awards scholarships based on the following criteria:

1. Academic parameters (GPA, MCAT, college or university, majors, courses, and recommendation letters)

2. Mission-related issues (e.g., career interests in underserved areas, primary care, or academic medicine/research)

3. Personal qualities (e.g., extracurricular activities, motivation, communication skills, socioeconomic status, compassion, integrity, maturity, and leadership)

4. Characteristics identified on interview (e.g., motivation, interpersonal skills, creativity, intellectual capacity, and overall impression)
