Student InterCouncil Scholarship Applications are now open!

The Student InterCouncil (SIC) is awarding three $1,000 scholarships to current UTHealth Houston students this year (one recipient per scholarship).

  •  SIC Academic Achievement Award for academic achievements
  • Toshi Nikaidoh Service Award for outstanding service
  • Shohrae Hajibashi Memorial Leadership Award for excellence in student leadership

UTHealth Houston students who are currently enrolled in fall 2023 classes are eligible to apply for the SIC Academic Achievement Award and Toshi Nikaidoh Service Award. Those involved in student leadership are eligible for the Shohrae Hajibashi Memorial Leadership Award.

Review and consideration for the academic achievement and service awards will be conducted by the SIC Scholarship Committee, so members of the committee are not eligible to apply for those awards. The scholarships will be disbursed in spring 2024; therefore, recipients will also need to be enrolled through spring 2024.

Visit the SIC scholarship opportunities webpage for more detailed information and to access the online applications for each scholarship. Please take the time to look over each scholarship’s requirements and instructions, as they differ.

Applications must be submitted no later than 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 31.

For questions regarding the SIC scholarship awards, contact SIC Administrative Advisor Tanedra Booker at Tanedra.Booker@uth.tmc.edu.
