Scholarship Programs for People with Epilepsy

Posted on December 14, 2009 at 4:18 PM

Do you have epilepsy and are a senior in high school?  Considering college?  There is a scholarship program at the Epilepsy Foundation of Rochester-Syracuse-Binghamton you have to check out.

 

Stephen A. Segar created this scholarship program in 2007 because he believes that epilepsy should not stop anyone from achieving their dreams.  Epilepsy certainly didn't stop him -- Steve Segar is a successful lawyer, a founding partner of Segar & Sciortino, and a board member of the Epilepsy Foundation of Rochester-Syracuse-Binghamton.

 

Visit our Scholarship Page for more details and the application forms.  Applications are due April 30, 2010.

 

UCB, a pharmaceutical company, is also offering a scholarship program.  This program is for individuals with epilepsy and family members or caregivers.  For more details, visit their scholarship page.  Applications for the UCB Scholarship are due April 23, 2010.
