Undergraduate Scholarship Program (UGSP) is sponsored by NIH Office of Intramural Training & Education. The NIH UGSP is a financial needs-based scholarship award for undergraduate students committed to careers in biomedical, behavioral, and social science research. The program provides scholarship recipients up to $20,000 per academic year for tuition, educational, and reasonable living expenses.
For every year of scholarship support, scholars commit to two paid service obligations in the NIH Intramural Research Program: a ten-week full-time summer internship at the NIH and one year of full-time work at the NIH post-graduation.
