SPAO-HNS Scholarship
updated 09/19/09


The Society of Physician Assistants in Otorhinolaryngology / Head &
Neck Surgery (SPAO-HNS) is pleased to announce that we have
partnered with the PA Foundation, the Philanthropic arm of AAPA, in an
effort to get more exposure for our scholarship and its recipients.

Our organization is looking to recognize motivated physician assistant
students enrolled in either an accredited PA Program or post-graduate
program that have a sincere interest in a career in ENT. The number of
scholarships and their monetary reward will depend on available funds
and will vary from year to year.
Previous Recipients

The next recipients will be announced at the Annual Board Meeting held in
conjunction with the American Academy of Physician Assistants
Conference in
Atlanta, Georgia in May 2010.

Any student with an interest in ENT is encouraged to apply. The deadline
is
May 1st, 2010. Interested students should contact Jason Fowler via
e-mail at
jasoncfowler@gmail.com immediately.

The SPAO-HNS Scholarship Program will award
at least one $500
scholarship yearly to students in either their didactic or clinical year.
