AHECScholarsThe NC AHEC Scholars Program at Northwest AHEC recruits, trains, and supports a diverse group of students from across the state, creating a multidisciplinary team of health professionals committed to both community service and the transformation of health care in North Carolina. We seek individuals who are committed to improving health and health care, devoted to community service, and interested in improving their own skills and in working with other professionals in team-based care.

Northwest AHEC partners with two institutions for the Scholars Program, Wake Forest University (WFU) and Winston-Salem State University (WSSU). We coordinate to recruit ten students per year from each campus that are focused on a career in health.
