Matching Grants for Health Professions Scholarships to Indian Tribes
Published on AidPage by IDILOGIC on Jun 24, 2005
Purpose of this program:
To provide scholarships to Indians for health professions education through Indian tribes and tribal organizations. Scholarships must be for health careers listed in the current fiscal year Federal Register Notice for the Indian Health Professions Scholarship Program. Related objectives of the program are the proper administration of a project, selection of scholarship recipients by fair and consistent means, monitoring of recipients to assure compliance with scholarship requirements, and eventual job placement within the service area of the grantee organization to fulfill service obligation. One of the monitoring objectives is assuring satisfactory academic performance which is defined as: (1) a 2.0 grade point average (GPA); (2) the GPA required by the college/university; or (3) a 3.0 GPA for most graduate level programs. A project awarded under this program will be by a grant to the tribe or tribal organization.
