FIT Scholarship

In recent years, the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) has its reduced financial support for rheumatology fellows attending the ACR Annual Scientific Meeting.  

In response, the PRS Board of Directors  offers a one-time scholarship for  rheumatology fellows enrolled in an ACGME-accredited Pennsylvania Adult or Pediatric Rheumatology Fellowship Program to be used to attend one of the educational opportunities listed below and/or the PRS Annual Scientific Meeting.

Nominees and their nominators must be PRS members. Kindly note that in order to receive the funding, recipients must attend the PRS ASM, including the Friday Education Day.

Once notified of their award, scanned receipts and a completed online PRS FIT Scholarship reimbursement form must be submitted within 30 days of the event to obtain the reimbursement of up to $1,000.
