USC’s PTMLA offers two scholarships to two incoming first year underrepresented minority PT students who exemplify the qualities of leadership, minority community involvement, and academic excellence as well as the potential to demonstrate superior achievement in the profession of physical therapy.
Applications are for incoming DPT-I students in either USC’s hybrid or residential physical therapy program and are usually sent out in July with recipients chosen mid-August prior to the White Coat ceremony.
UPDATE (10/27): Our link is now live for donations towards our future scholarship recipients! Applications will be sent out in mid-December and recipients will be chosen January.
*Please note that due to COVID-19 these dates are subject to change.
