Dear Student,
You’re receiving this email because your strong academic background and your interests suggest that you might be a good candidate for the Goldwater Scholarship, a highly prestigious national scholarship for undergraduates in the STEM fields. Not only is the money nice, but an award like this radically increases your chances of getting into competitive graduate programs and receiving future funding.
Students who plan to study medicine are eligible if they plan a research career rather than a career as a medical doctor in a private practice. Students applying should be U.S. citizens or permanent residents with a strong commitment to research. The Goldwater offers up to $7,500 annually toward your undergraduate tuition.
Our office will be holding an online informational session Wednesday, October 30 at 12 noon on Zoom.
If you are unable to attend the event but are interested in learning more about the Goldwater or similar opportunities, please visit the Scholar Development website (go.tufts.edu/scholar) to make an appointment with a member of our team.
The internal deadline to apply for the Goldwater is December 10, 2024. You can start an application by visiting the Goldwater website. I hope to see you next week!
Onward!
Anne
