The Foundation of the American College of Healthcare Executives established the Albert W. Dent Graduate Student Scholarship in honor of Albert W. Dent, the first African-American Fellow of ACHE. This scholarship is offered to provide financial aid to racially/ethnically students in healthcare management graduate programs to help offset tuition costs, student loans and expenses. Applicants must be enrolled in a healthcare management graduate program such as MHA, MPH, MBA in Healthcare Administration or similar. Applicants must be entering their final year (fall or spring) of study. They must expect to graduate between September 1, 2024 and August 31, 2025. If a student has a residency as part of their program and the upcoming fall term will be their second year of study, they may apply for a scholarship. Doctoral students are not eligible to apply. Applicants are not required to be a Student Associate of the American College of Healthcare Executives. However, during the selection process, preference is given to applicants who are Student Associates of ACHE. Three current letters of recommendation are required, one must be from the applicant's graduate program director.
