Re: Scholarships for Paramedics

[DV_EMT]

Hi all,

So I did a quick search to see if there are any threads about scholarship programs for Paramedic and Flight Paramedic. I came across an old thread (2005) but found nothing more. So I will ask in case anything has changed since then....

any scholarshipis y'all know about for Paramedic/Flight paramedic?

Boundtree Medical has a scholarship program for anyone whose parent or legal guardian was/is actively involved in EMS. You must be pursuing EMT or paramedic education. I can't remember the specific guidelines, but you have to write a short essay. I won a scholarship from them last year for $325.

Yes there are plenty. Go to your local community college and while in pursuit of your two year degree to obtain paramedic level, visit the financial aid office-there are tons of government and private scholarships.

If you already have a degree, go to a college that offers a degree in paramedicine/EMS and see if you can roll your credits over towards that while you focus on the core medic classes.
