Spring Scholarships and Grants Cycle - Now Closed
The Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA) Foundation is a student-managed organization, under the auspices of the American Osteopathic Foundation, specializing in providing scholarships for current Osteopathic medical students who are members of National SOMA. 
Help us to Ignite the Future of Osteopathic medicine!
Each year, during National Osteopathic Medicine Week, the SOMA Foundation (SOMAF) raised funds to support Osteopathic medical students by providing opportunities for Career and Professional Development. The initial launch of this campaign during NOM week in 2022 was so successful that the campaign remains an ongoing fundraising effort to support Osteopathic medical students throughout the entire year! Your continued support will help students develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to take charge of their careers!

Help Osteopathic medical students become leaders of the future both personally and professionally. Your gift of any amount will help us put medical students in a position to succeed every step of the way!

Scholarships & Grants

With the support of our generous benefactors, the SOMA Foundation is proud to offer a wide range of scholarships for our student members. For more information on the scholarships we offer click here.

As of 2022 the SOMA Foundation is officially partnered with the American Osteopathic Foundation (AOF) as our affiliated grant writing organization!! The AOF has their own suite of scholarships that provide additional opportunities for support and recognition to Osteopathic medical students across the nation! Check out the AOF's grants and scholarships here.
The SOMA Foundation Grant Program is an exciting program that was created to promote osteopathic medicine on a local level.  This year, with the increasing number of talks about mental health and burnout rates of physicians, the Foundation Grant Program is sponsoring projects relating to mental health and substance abuse by medical professionals, residents, and students. Awards are limited to $500 per osteopathic college and given on a rolling basis.  For more information or to complete an application click here.
