Student Scholarships
The Vermont Pharmacists Association Student Scholarship was established to support students pursuing careers in the field of pharmacy in the State of Vermont.
Scholarships are awarded annually and presented at the Spring Continuing Education Event. Students are selected by the VPA Board using the criteria listed here.
Scholarship applicants must be enrolled in an accredited school or college of pharmacy. They must be in their final year of pharmacy school. Students must be residents of Vermont and planning to practice in the State of Vermont upon graduation.
Keep our profession vital by supporting our future practitioners. If you would like to support the scholarship fund, please donate here.
