TD Insurance Meloche Monnex AMA Medical Student Bursary
Competition is now closed
The TD Insurance Meloche Monnex AMA Medical Student Bursary Program helps to reduce financial pressure from escalating medical school tuition fees so that every qualified student can afford to attend medical school. Since 2001 the bursary has awarded 1,465 bursaries for a total of $2,171,500.
In 2023, we issued 92 student bursaries between the University of Alberta and University of Calgary. Download the TD Insurance Meloche Monnex AMA Medical Student Bursary info sheet.
The bursary program is made possible through a significant contribution by TD Insurance Meloche Monnex as well as donations from generous physician members.
Eligibility
The TD Insurance Meloche Monnex/AMA Medical Student Bursary is available to AMA student members in good standing, who are also enrolled full-time in undergraduate medical education in an Alberta medical school at the time the bursary application is made.
Eligibility is based on financial need. Proof of a minimum debt of $10,000 is required and must be submitted with your application (copies of statements from financial institutions and government student loan programs or their agencies). Statements without the applicant’s name will not be considered in the total debt. Many on-line or quick print documents do not provide names. These documents indicate they are not official documents and for more information to contact them. Documentation that would show the loan number and name together would be acceptable as proof of debt.
Only two student bursaries can be awarded to the same student throughout medical school.
How much is available?
There is no predetermined number of bursaries per class – the awards disbursed depend on the funds available, the number of applications and each applicant’s level of financial need.
Funds are apportioned to each Alberta medical school based on the number of students enrolled. In April 2023, $110,500 was awarded to medical students who qualified for the bursary.
