Financial Aid & Scholarship Opportunities
Students in the Physical Therapy Program are eligible for general financial aid, and should apply.
Contact UNM's Health Sciences Center Financial Aid office by email at HSC-FinancialAidOffice@salud.unm.edu or visit their website: https://hsc.unm.edu/student-affairs/offices/financial-aid/. Many forms of financial aid require that students fill out the FAFSA every year, which you can find here: https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa.
In addition, various loans and scholarships are available for physical therapy students from local, state, and national resources. The APTA offers a 1-stop source for information on everything from association- and component-sponsored awards to federal student loan forgiveness opportunities: http://www.apta.org/.
The list of scholarships is currently undergoing evaluation and revisions. Please contact our program at HSC-UNMPTProgram@salud.unm.edu if you have questions about scholarship opportunities.
