Female medical and dental students currently enrolled in U.S. accredited programs are given priority for full ($590) or partial ($350) scholarships.

  • A limited number of partial scholarships up to $350 are available for female medical and dental residents/fellows with financial need.
  • Female undergraduates or students in other disciplines (i.e.: nursing or PA training), are welcome to attend the conference but are not eligible for scholarships.

 

Scholarship recipients will be notified

  • On June 20th for all applications submitted prior to June 15th
  • On August 4th for all applications submitted prior to August 1st.

It is expected that you will make every effort to attend if you are awarded a scholarship. If unable to attend due to extenuating circumstances, please communicate with us at [email protected] as soon as possible.

  • Cancellations after August 15th will be charged a $50 cancellation fee.
  • If you are granted a scholarship and do not show up to conference without any communication ahead of time, then the student rate of $590 will be charged to your credit card.

 

Students/residents who receive scholarship aid are required to submit a reflection for the “Trainee Thought” in the monthly WPDC Pulse.  Recipients will be contacted with details.
