In order to receive funding through the Caring Gene® Program, you must complete all education requirements by spring 2027. If funding is no longer available at a certain partner institution, that means the educational programs they offer cannot be completed by spring 2027.

You may still apply to attend any of these institutions, but tuition, books, and other fees will not be covered by the Caring Gene® Program.
