NUNM Awards Record $300,000 in Scholarships for 2025-2026

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, NUNM is proud to announce that we have awarded a record $300,000 in scholarships for the 2025-2026 academic year, the largest amount we have awarded without grant support. Every scholarship was made possible through the NUNM endowment and the generosity of individual supporters who believe in our students and the future of whole-person care.

These scholarships help ease the financial burden for our students, allowing them to focus on their studies and grow as compassionate, skilled practitioners. Our students are dedicated, driven, and committed to making a lasting impact in their communities and beyond.

This year’s recipients represent the heart of NUNM. They include students pursuing naturopathic medicine, Chinese medicine, nutrition, and global health, all working toward careers that prioritize holistic, patient-centered care. Every scholarship awarded is a step toward empowering these students to thrive and continue their important work in the field.

NUNM scholarships range from awards like the endowed Percy & Adrienne Frazier Memorial scholarship gifted by grateful patients of alumna Dr. Christine White-Deeble, to the Dr. Ed Alstat Memorial Scholarship, in honor of an NUNM Hall-of-Fame awardee who established the first medicinary at the NUNM Health Center. Scholarships are awarded based on a combination of academic achievement, financial need, and commitment to advancing the mission of NUNM.

We are incredibly grateful to our donors for their support and proud of our students for their dedication and vision. Together, we are creating a future where whole-person care is the standard.
