Merit scholarships are awarded on the basis of outstanding accomplishments, including previous academic performance, leadership, community service, letters of recommendation, admissions interviews, and the applicant's potential for leadership and service as a physician. For students to qualify, their applications must be accompanied by an endorsement from one of MCP Hahnemann's alumni or an MCP Hahnemann trustee. Financial Assistance MCP Hahnemann administers a variety of programs that offer loans, grants, and work opportunities. Financial need is determined through an approved analysis that outlines each student's and family's financial strength. With this information, the Office of Student Financial Affairs determines the distribution of funds, most of which are loans from the federal and state governments.
Many students also take advantage of jobs obtained through our work-study program.
