Application checklist
- Online MRSP application (open 1 September 2026 to 1 December 2026)
- Evidence of enrolment in year 2, 3 or 4 of an accredited medical, dental or veterinary programme
- Evidence of US citizenship or permanent residency
- Check official page for references, transcripts and research-interest requirements
Application tips
- Use the official NIH date, 1 December 2026: a secondary university page says 2 December, but the NIH date governs.
- This is a full-time, in-person year at NIH — plan to pause your degree programme for 10.5 to 12 months.
- Apply in year 2, 3 or 4 only; final-year students past that window are outside the stated eligibility.
- The stipend structure was not stated on the page checked, so confirm support terms on the official page before relying on them.
