We are delighted you have expressed interest or have chosen to apply for a visiting rotation at Providence Portland Medical Center!
Underrepresented in Medicine Sub-Internship Scholarship:
Providence has a goal to increase workforce diversity and meet the needs of our communities. To promote this, we offer scholarships for sub-internships in Internal Medicine to students who identify as underrepresented in medicine.
The AAMC defines underrepresented in medicine is as follows: “Underrepresented in medicine means those racial and ethnic populations that are underrepresented in the medical profession relative to their numbers in the general population.” We at the Providence recognize that diversity goes beyond this definition. We strive for an inclusive learning and work environment for all individuals.
We accept scholarship applications with rolling admission from December 1 to February 14 for medical students planning to apply for categorical internal medicine residency. We will consider applications after February 14 if we have not already filled in the scholarship spots. Click here to apply for the URM scholarship. You will still be considered for a visiting student sub-internship even if you are not selected for the scholarship.
