Helping today’s students become tomorrow’s health care leaders
Students at the Geisel School of Medicine share a passion for improving the lives of others. Your gift will be a crucial assist in their journey.
57%

$200K
medical education debt for half of the graduating students in 2021
$4.9M
annual scholarship funding given by Geisel, but much more is needed
Testimonial
Generosity from donors not only lessens my educational debt but also empowers me to focus on achieving my full potential. I’m incredibly grateful and will remember this thoughtfulness when I have the opportunity to pay it forward in the future.”
Supporting medical student mental health
A generous gift from Patty Sacks and Doug Sacks helped launch the Healthy Students = Healthy Physicians program shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic struck in 2020. The next year, a substantial gift from Holly Andersen D’85 and Doug Hirsch D’85 bolstered the groundbreaking student mental health program.
Advancing equity, unlocking opportunities
You can help create a more equitable and enriching learning environment by making a gift to the Underrepresented in Medicine (URM) Student Support Services Fund. Students from racial, ethnic, and other identity groups that are underrepresented and/or disadvantaged often face special challenges in medical school and graduate programs.
You can make dreams come true: Give to scholarships
Whatever sparks one’s passion for medicine, scholarships can turn dreams into reality. Four students tell their stories of why they want to be physicians.
