About ABPA
The mission of the Austin Black Physicians Association is multifaceted, reflecting a commitment to fostering a healthier and more equitable future for the African American community in Austin, Texas, and surrounding areas. The association’s overarching goal is to empower both current and future Black physicians to provide compassionate, human-centered care.
About The Dr. Timothy George Scholarship Program
In honor of our Scholarship Chair, founding Board member, colleague, and dear friend, the ABPA Board has unanimously voted to rename our scholarship program the Dr. Timothy George Scholarship.
Dr. George was passionate about providing underrepresented black students the opportunity to attend MCAT prep courses to help bolster minority representation in medicine.
The Austin Black Physicians Association is proud to offer scholarships for MCAT preparation courses.
In an effort to increase underrepresented minorities in U.S. Medical Schools, we intend to provide MCAT prep course certificates to those applicants who are chosen.
To apply, you must meet the following criteria:
- From a Black, African American, or African descent population
- 3rd or 4th-year student at a Texas college/university
- Post-graduate Texas resident
- Planning to take the MCAT in 2025
- Planning to attend medical school
Applications are now open, deadline to apply is October 31st, 2024.
