The Mahin and Saifulla Salemy High School Scientific Scholarship was awarded to high school seniors in the United States who had been accepted to and planned to attend college (either 4-year or community) in the United States, and had an interest in the sciences.
Plastic surgery is the branch of scientific medicine that is dedicated to the reconstruction and repair of the body. It can correct deformities that are a result of accidents, birth defects, or illness, in addition to improving overall aesthetics of the body. Not only is it a science, but plastic surgery is also an art that helps individuals increase their confidence.
One student was honored with a scholarship award of one thousand dollars (US $1,000.00), which was issued to his or her accepting college.
Eligibility and application process included:
- Written application
- Personal statement
- 3 references (teachers or employers)
- In-person or other interview
Please NOTE: Official School transcripts were not required.
Scholarship recipients were notified by Dr. Salemy or a representative and received the scholarship award approximately 60 – 90 days after the deadline in the form of a check payment to the recipient’s accepting college.
