Your Support Matters
Whether you create a new scholarship or support an existing one, you can choose:
MERIT BASED SCHOLARSHIPS – these help position MCG to recruit high performing scholars who are considering multiple school offers
NEEDS-BASED SCHOLARSHIPS – keep MCG affordable for students by reducing indebtedness, which will allow students to maximize enrichment training opportunities
DIVERSITY SCHOLARSHIPS – create an academic and social environment that celebrates equality and a global perspective, truly bringing the world to MCG.
You can create a named endowment in your own name or to honor or memorialize a loved one or respected colleague, with a gift of $100,000 or more (which can be pledged and paid over five years.) Example: John D. Smith, M.D. Scholarship.
Endowed scholarships grow and exist in perpetuity because these funds are invested with only a portion of the earnings distributed annually in scholarships. Endowments ensure scholarship funds are available for many future generations of aspiring physicians.
