Scholarships for Students with Marginalized Identities

Our division trains highly compassionate, critically thinking, and enthusiastic health business leaders and administrators. Within the Jesuit tradition, our curriculum emphasizes health infrastructure for marginalized populations. Many of our students carry a personal identity that has historically been less resourced. We estimate that over half of our students identify as a: person of color, first generation college student, student with English as a second language, rural and frontier learners, gender and sexuality divergent students, among other marginalized intersections. As we train our administrators to work with communities and populations who have not had a voice, we use the knowledge that leaders who make the largest difference have lived experiences like their populations. Therefore, we want to provide scholarships to those students with marginalized identities that will later build the systems to support others with similar backgrounds.
