Fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).You'll need your tax records for this. The FAFSA application is the first step in applying for any scholarship. Although the FAFSA is not specifically designed for medical school, med schools use the information to determine institutional financial aid offers.
Apply for additional institutional financial aid from the medical school you'll be attending. While the FAFSA will go to your med school, which triggers applications for many colleges that are specifically offered by the school, contact the financial aid office and inquire about additional scholarships the school offers, and how to apply for them.
Search online for scholarships that are specifically designed for med school students, such as scholarships listed on the American Medical Association website. Apply for as many as you are eligible.
Think about the things that set you apart from others, such as the place you were born, your religious affiliation, any ethnic group to which you belong and other personal attributes. Note that there are scholarships that are specifically targeted to people who are left-handed. Conduct online searches with search engine terms for the personal attributes that set you apart.
Talk to your undergraduate financial aid office. They can often direct you to local places that offer scholarships to med students.
