About 180 Medical Scholarship Opportunities

Each year, from January 1st to June 1st, 180 Medical accepts applications from eligible college students across the United States. You can find out more about our annual scholarship opportunities below.

180 Medical College Scholarship Program

The 180 Medical College Scholarship Program, which was originally created in 2012, is offered to college students with specific medical conditions including spinal cord injury, spina bifida, transverse myelitis, neurogenic bladder, and/or an ostomy (ileostomy, urostomy, or colostomy).

Since 2012, 180 Medical has awarded over 60 scholarships to students who’ve experienced challenges due to their conditions that have made paying for college and achieving their goals more difficult.

180 Medical Ron Howell Caregiver Scholarship Program

In addition to the 180 Medical College Scholarship Program, the 180 Medical Ron Howell Caregiver College Scholarship was created in 2020 to honor former 180 Medical President Ron Howell upon his retirement. This scholarship program aims to help college students who are unpaid caregivers to a loved one living with a chronic disability.

Because 180 Medical understands that these students often face limited financial resources and time, they created this scholarship program to aid these selfless caregivers in pursuit of their career dreams.

180 Medical takes tremendous pride in supporting the educational pursuits of our awardees. The candidates we review each year continue to raise the bar. We are inspired and energized by these applicants, especially when overlaying the complexities of managing their own condition or making a tangible commitment to care for a loved one.
Seth Segel, President
