2025 International Scholarships to Study Medicine

One $5,000 scholarship to a woman who is currently enrolled or accepted to study full-time in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) degree program at an MPOWER Partner University in the United States or Canada. Application Deadline: 31st December 2020 Eligible Countries: International To be taken at (country): USA, Canada About the Award: In keeping with MPOWER’s commitment to empower high-potential global citizens to realize their educational aspirations—and become tomorrow’s leading scientists and innovators —this scholarship program will focus on women who will use their STEM degree to benefit society and the planet and who have the potential to serve as role models and advocates for women in STEM. As a certified B Corporation (social enterprise) and the leading American provider of education loans to international students, MPOWER has long been focused on increasing access to higher education for women from emerging markets. MPOWER’s interviews with borrowers indicate that women in emerging markets are less likely than their male counterparts to receive financial support for higher education from their families. For MPOWER’s CEO and co-founder Manu Smadja, these statistics represent a social challenge to address.“It’s critical for us as a society to have a meaningful representation of women shaping the science and technology of tomorrow. The world may look a lot different if we do a better job at enabling female talent to shape the technologies transforming healthcare, education, transportation, or cities for instance. By helping talented female students study and work in North America, we’re helping close the gender gap in the STEM workforce,” said Smadja. “But we’d like to do much more, and starting this new scholarship program is yet another way to level the playing field.” Type: Undergraduate, Masters Eligibility: The student must: Be accepted at, or enrolled in, a full-time degree program at a U.S. or Canadian school that MPOWER supports, andBe an international student allowed to legally study in the U.S. or Canada, as applicable:For study in the U.S., this means that the applicant meets one of these criteria:Has a valid visa that permits study in the U.S. orIs protected under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) , orIs a U.S. permanent resident (Green Card holder).For study in Canada, this means the applicant meets one of these criteria:Is a Canadian permanent resident, orHas a valid Canadian study permit We have created this scholarship specifically for international and DACA students.
