Each year, Rizing Tide will award three Surge scholarships to graduating physical therapy students or licensed physical therapists who are entering an ABPTRFE-certified residency program and who come from an underrepresented racial and/or ethnic background. Each recipient will receive a one-time payment which will be paid directly to the residency program provider and may be used to cover any residency expenses. To be eligible, applicants must have graduated from a CAPTE-accredited physical therapy program; attend an ABPTRFE-accredited PT residency program within the U.S.; be a U.S. citizen or have DACA status; and remain in good standing until the completion of the residency program. An acceptance letter from the residency program the applicant will attend and two letters of recommendation must be submitted. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
