Scholarships:
For Four MCH Scholars

Because we are a Center of Excellence, we can offer benefits you may not be able to get with other MCH programs. Prospective students who apply early may be eligible for a special scholarship package.

Each year in January, the Center will offer a scholarship-and-work package to supplement one of the school’s Presidential Merit Scholarships.  The Center will award four such packages to students who are applying to the MCH Program and want to matriculate in the fall residential semester.

The MCH Scholar package is composed of tuition benefits and income from part-time work as a graduate research assistant.  This package is added onto the Presidential Merit Scholarship funds from the Milken Institute School of Public Health. Recipients of the MCH Scholar package shall be assigned to one of the four full-time MCH faculty and will receive mentoring and experience in MCH-related research.
