»Scholarships

The Chapman University PA Studies Program is pleased to award several merit-based scholarships to incoming and second year students each year.

Departmental Merit Fellowships

After the admission process is completed and our incoming cohort has been filled, we award partial tuition fellowships to incoming students based on excellence across the various domains of the CASPA application. There is no separate application; these scholarships are awarded based on materials submitted through CASPA only.

John P. Dyer and Keith R. Dyer Fellowships

One student is awarded each of these partial-tuition fellowships based on outstanding performance in the first year of the program in the areas of scholarship, leadership, and clinical skills. There is no separate application; the recipients are selected based on faculty nomination and voting.

Gabriela Belinsky Fellowship

One student is awarded this partial-tuition fellowship based on outstanding performance in the first year of the program in the areas of service to the PA profession, empowerment of classmates, teamwork, and communication. There is no separate application; the recipient is selected based on faculty nomination and voting.

Norma Sue Jones Endowment

One student is awarded this partial-tuition fellowship based on outstanding performance in the first year of the program in the areas of academic achievement, professionalism, and clinical skills. There is no separate application; the recipient is selected based on faculty nomination and voting.
