40 AbbVie CF Scholars will be selected to receive $2,500 each for use during the 2013-2014 academic year based on established criteria, including academic record and extracurricular activities, essay and creative presentation.
AbbVie continuously seeks new ways to enhance the AbbVie CF Scholarship, previously known as the CFCareForward Scholarship. In honor of the 21st year of the scholarship program, each scholar will be given the opportunity to compete for one of two Thriving Student Scholarships (based on level of study) for a total amount of $21,000 each. It is not necessary for applicants to have taken, currently take, or intend to take in the future, any medicine or product marketed by AbbVie, and this will not be a consideration in the recipient selection criteria.
