2026 Scholarships
In our inaugural year, The DermElevate Scholarship Initiative is proud to announce that 17 scholarships will be awarded to 13 high school students and 4 college students representing over 10 states nationwide. Recipients will be notified on or around April 20, 2026.
These awards reflect our commitment to supporting students with financial need who demonstrate academic excellence, service, and an interest in healthcare. We hope this support not only eases financial barriers, but also empowers each recipient to pursue their goals and make a meaningful impact in their communities.

Featured Scholarships
Scholarship opportunities are offered annually through this website; however, award amounts, and the number of recipients may vary from year to year.
