- This is a summer research fellowship, not a degree scholarship — it suits undergraduates testing a PhD or MD path.
- Contact a potential Penn State mentor before the window opens; summer placements depend on lab availability.
- Confirm the stipend and any residency rules on the official page, as neither was stated in the snippet checked.
