Scholarship: Concordia University - Micah Scholars (Pre-Health Academic Community)
Description: In the Bible, the prophet Micah called God’s people to do justice, love mercy, and humbly follow the Lord. Concordia’s Micah Scholars have heard the prophet’s call. The Lord has given them a heart for service, a head for science, and a desire to use these gifts in healthcare to demonstrate the mercy of God in service to others. Scholarship Award: $5,000 annually
Micah Scholars meet throughout the academic year to exercise the gifts the Lord has given them as they prepare for service in the healthcare vocations. The time commitment for participating in Micah Scholars is about 15 hours/week. This includes participation in on- and off-campus experiences such as:
volunteering together in healthcare vocations,
rigorous study halls to promote success in the most challenging pre-health courses,
guest presentations and lectures focused on the health sciences
and healthcare facility tours.
