Medical scholarship available for Adirondack region students

LAKE PLACID — The Dr. U.R. Plante Medical Scholarship is accepting applications now through May 16.

The Plante Scholarship at Adirondack Foundation is awarded annually to medical students who have resided in the Adirondack Park — or in St. Lawrence, Franklin, Clinton, Essex or Hamilton counties — for a minimum of two years. Successful candidates must be willing to return to one of these locations, a rural community elsewhere in the U.S. or an area where there is a shortage of doctors.

Interested applicants must be accepted to, or currently enrolled in, an MD or DO program. Scholarships of up to $10,000 are awarded annually.

Applications must be submitted through Adirondack Foundation’s Online Grants Manager. More information can be found at bit.ly/plantescholarship. Additional questions can be directed to Adirondack Foundation Funds and Program Officer Andrea Grout at (518) 523-9904 or [email protected].
