Scholars Fund


AMA Foundation Scholars Fund

The AMA Alliance - the largest volunteer arm of the AMA raises money each year for medical schools to distribute to deserving students of their choice. The AMA Foundation tracks these donations for medical schools independently in separate accounts. Medical schools receive notification of funds available in March. Each dean or dean's designate chooses scholarship recipients based on the funds available. Each Scholars Fund award must be at least $1,000. If a school does not have $1,000 in their account, the AMA Foundation will let funds accumulate until one full scholarship can be fulfilled.
