Countywide : Medical Auxiliary Offers Scholarships

The Ventura County Medical Society Auxiliary has set a March 1 deadline to apply for health career scholarships offered by the group this year.

The scholarships are available to Ventura County students who plan to enroll in medical training programs or are already students in such programs, spokeswoman Jessica Bessette said.

Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of academic ability, character and financial need. Members of the Ventura County Medical Society and their families are not eligible.

Winners of the scholarships will be announced in June.
