Preparing for the MCAT exam?
Check out the Dr. Stephen Schell Scholarship


Dr. Stephen E. Schell, MD (BS Biology, 1975), a board certified otolaryngologist and graduate of Temple University School of Medicine, has generously established an award to assist students in preparing for osteopathic or allopathic medical school. The Dr. Stephen Schell Scholarship provides funds of $300 - $500 to help defray the cost of a preparatory course or materials for the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), not the exam itself.  The scholarship can be awarded before or after the costs are incurred. The funds can be allocated between July 2019 and June 2020. Students in any major are eligible to apply.

To apply for the scholarship, please submit the following packet of materials to Dr. Surmacz, 146 Hartline, by 4:30 p.m., Friday, March 29, 2019. Reference letters may be sent directly to Dr. Surmacz or may be delivered in sealed envelopes with the recommender’s signature over the flap.

·         resume and unofficial transcript

·         one reference letter from a faculty member in your major

·         one reference letter from a faculty member outside your major

·         statement describing your personal and professional goals.

Recipients of the 2019 Dr. Stephen Schell Scholarship were Jasmine Bailey and Justin Salak.

Please direct any questions to Dr. Surmacz csurmacz@bloomu.edu
