Adam Ferrari Health Science Scholarship
The Adam Ferrari Health Science Scholarship supports students who choose to pursue a graduate degree in health science with the aim of improving treatment for people with physical disabilities.

To be eligible for this scholarship, registered candidates must prepare a 1000-word essay and complete the qualifying requirements. In January, the winner of the best essay will be chosen; the winner will be notified by email and will have two (2) weeks to accept the award.

Disabledperson Scholarship Competition
In order to qualify, the student must be enrolled in a 2 or 4 years accredited college or university in the United States of America. They must be a matriculated student and attending school full-time and U.S. citizen. We will accept students who are not attending school full-time as long as the part-time attendance is due to their disability and not their financial situation (minimum of 6 credits for undergraduate, 6 credits for graduate). Unfortunately, we are not able to award scholarships to high school students.
NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP)
The purpose of the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP) is to help ensure the vitality and diversity of the scientific and engineering workforce of the United States.

The GRFP provides three years of support for the graduate education of individuals who have demonstrated their potential for significant research achievements in STEM or STEM education. NSF especially encourages women, members of underrepresented minority groups, persons with disabilities, veterans, and undergraduate seniors to apply.
