DOROTHY ROSS SCHOLARSHIP

 

Dorothy Ross was the first president of the New York State Society of Medical Assistants. In 1992 Mrs. Ross donated funds to set up a $500.00 scholarship award each year to a deserving medical assisting student. The winner of the scholarship is announced at the annual convention of the society each year in April.

The past presidents of the society have collected money from the attendees at the annual convention of the society to keep the funds going. The medical assistants attending the convention each year have been generous in their donations.

In September of each year the Dorothy Ross Scholarship Committee sends application forms to all CAAHEP accredited medical assisting schools in New York State asking that the medical assisting instructors inform their students of this $500.00 scholarship. If you are a medical assisting student and have not heard about this scholarship, please ask your instructor if he/she has a Dorothy Ross Scholarship Application Form that you can fill out and apply to the scholarship committee for consideration.


The winner of the 2007 Dorothy Ross Scholarship was Michelle De Jesus.
