2025 Allied Health Scholarship

Since 1972, the TCMS and TCMSA combined efforts to provide scholarships for students in area Allied Health programs. Physicians do not provide quality healthcare alone. It takes a team of professionals from the many fields of Allied Healthcare working together. This is why the Tarrant County Medical Society and the TCMS Alliance partner to provide scholarships to help well qualified students in the many local programs further their education. If you or someone you know, is in a Tarrant, Johnson or Parker County Allied Health program, with at least one semester to go after spring 2024, return the completed application with transcripts and letters of recommendation by the March 28, 2025 deadline.
