The MSTP pays the cost of four years of medical school tuition and fees; it also provides individual health insurance and an annual stipend which has steadily increased with the cost of living. The current annual stipend is $38,000 for the 1st and 2nd years of medical school and $40,000 during the 3rd and 4th years of medical school. Stipends during the graduate years match the level of support during the 1st and 2nd years of medical school – and increases after passing the PhD candidacy exam and if a student receives an F30, F31, or other competitive pre-doctoral award.
This level of support coupled with the relatively low cost of living in Cincinnati allows our program to provide highly competitive compensation compared to other fully funded MD/PhD programs.
All students are encouraged to apply for Individual Funding Grants (F30, F31, American Heart Association, etc). University of Cincinnati MSTP students have been very successful in receiving Individual Fellowship Awards through the NIH with an overall success rate of nearly 45% as compared with the national average of 35%. Our students receive grant writing training during our professional development retreats, and from the Student Governing Council. Students who apply for and receive outside awards (such as individual NIH or AHA grants, etc.) may receive a higher stipend.
