If you're thinking about going to medical, dental or another health-related graduate school, we advise you to look at these scholarships before hand to be prepared for their application requirements. Many will require you to be a member of their association in order to be considered for their scholarship. Being a member of an association can reap good benefits such as networking, mentoring programs, conferences, access to resources, work opportunities, professional development and of course scholarships.
