Section IV. Brown Fellowship Application (optional)
The Ray E. Brown Fellowship aims to identify and support exceptional students who are committed to the health care field and wish to pursue the Graduate Program in Health Administration and Policy while at the University of Chicago. In addition to attracting talented students to the program, the Brown Fellowship provides the opportunity for students to develop leadership skills and fosters interdisciplinary experiences through projects and activities associated with the fellowship.
One incoming student from Pritzker will be selected to receive a $5,000 fellowship to be distributed over three years with payments made in the second, third and fourth years of medical school.
Brown Fellows are expected to complete the requirements of GPHAP as well as participate in the following leadership activities:
• Act as a GPHAP student representative from their respective schools by communicating needs and interests of students to GPHAP faculty and staff, and by speaking with prospective students as needed.
• Attend GPHAP events and encourage others to do so to promote networking and cohesion among GPHAP students.
• Work with other Brown Fellows to plan and coordinate three GPHAP events that advance the understanding of health care issues on campus and promote the interdisciplinary aspects of the program.

• Copy of student’s undergraduate transcripts.
• One page letter of recommendation from a former supervisor or colleague in a health related position.
