The School has worked to increase financial aid funding to students in the form of need and merit-based School scholarships. All returning students have the opportunity to apply for over $1,000,000 in School-sponsored scholarships each year with scholarships ranging from $1,250 to $25,000 with an average of $6,500. A competitive application process is overseen by the UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy Foundation. An online application utilizes a holistic rubric to objectively evaluate applications (e.g., professional development, participation in scholarly endeavors, impact, commitment to school and community, self-awareness) and to make awards based on donor intent.
