NU PA Program Needs-Based Scholarships

Starting in early 2026, the Northwestern University PA Program will annually offer needs-based grants/scholarships to five current first-year students in the range of $5,000 to $10,000 each.

Determination of financial need and eligibility is conducted by the Program’s Scholarship Committee in collaboration with the Northwestern University Chicago Student Financial Aid Office.

Awards are not made during the admissions process. Rather, these needs-based grants/scholarships are typically awarded during the fall or spring term of a student’s first year. If deemed eligible, a member of the Program’s Scholarship Committee will contact students with additional information during that time.
