The scholarship will cover the full tuition for students, with each scholarship valued at more than $189,000. “We are excited to announce the Shaping Xavier scholarship opportunity,” said Ravi Bhooplapur, President of Xavier University School of Medicine. “We are launching an investment of more than $5 million in new scholarships for 2023 to provide additional deserving students the opportunity to attend Xavier and have successful careers in medicine.”

Five full-tuition scholarships will be available to students entering in the May 2023 semester, and 15 full-tuition scholarships will be awarded to students entering the September 2023 semester.

The Shaping Xavier scholarship has been launched in conjunction with the start of construction on Xavier’s new academic campus in Aruba. Set to open for the Fall 2024 semester, construction on the new academic campus is expected to finish in approximately 18 months.

“Xavier’s new academic campus, combined with our new residential campus that opened in September of 2021, will become not only one of the best medical school facilities in the Caribbean, but one of the best in the world,” Bhooplapur added.
