Description

The AACAP Mentorship Grants for Medical Students provides the opportunity for medical students to attend the 2025 AACAP Annual Meeting, October 20-25, 2025 in Chicago, IL , and receive an introduction into the field of child and adolescent psychiatry through AACAP's Annual Meeting mentorship events. Applicants must be enrolled in a medical school in the United States beginning July 2025 and at the time of the AACAP Annual Meeting in October 2025. Participants must be in good standing at their medical school. Participants must attend all AACAP Annual Meeting events specified by AACAP. Medical students must be AACAP members or pending at the time of their application to be considered. Applicants must submit a letter of support from a faculty member or mentor. The letter should indicate how long the faculty member or mentor has known the applicant and in what capacity. In describing the candidate, it would be helpful for the letter to address the applicant's training, qualifications, accomplishments, interest in the child and adolescent psychiatry specialty, motivation for this award, and the potential benefits of the candidate attending the Annual Meeting, as appropriate. In addition, a letter of good standing from the applicant's medical school must be sent directly to AACAP. Please visit the award's website or contact the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry for more information.
