Headbang For Science Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Bold.org
Headbang For Science, a 501(c)(3) public charity, is an annual scholarship award for high school seniors, undergrads, and grad students who are pursuing a career in healthcare and/or the physical sciences.
It’s the first scholarship foundation to directly provide financial aid to “Metalheads,” and was founded by SiriusXM curator/host and former Pharmacy grad student Jose “Metal Ambassador” Mangin in 2021.
This year, a total of $33K will go to three “far beyond driven” students, who have excellent grades, financial need, and a deep passion for Heavy Metal music. The board of directors includes a Grammy award-winning artist, the biggest rock fest promoter, and other music/medical industry leaders all wanting to give back to the Heavy Metal music community through a unique and academically motivating program.
Any high school senior, four-year undergraduate student, or graduate student who is pursuing a degree in healthcare or physical sciences may apply if they love Heavy Metal music. Applicants must have 3.0 GPAs or higher, but students with higher GPAs are preferred.
