Scholarship Summary

During the AAEP’s Annual Convention we presented 23 scholarships and fellow awards to deserving current and future equine practitioners!
These scholarships reward equine veterinary students and young researchers based on their academic excellence, leadership in their school and student chapter, and their long-term goals to pursue a career in equine practice.
The Foundation’s scholarship program is providing these future practitioners the financial help they need to get established. Without this timely support, many talented and dedicated students would not be able to fulfill their potential.
