Tylenol: Curing the Tuition Headache
March 24, 2008 – 2:32 pm by S TOld news for you perhaps. New to me! Tylenol, makers of the white pills that can cure you of a nasty headache brought upon by a hangover or something else, has a college scholarship fund! You can read more about it here.
There’s a bunch of information scattered about their scholarship landing page. Hence, I will guide you through the clutter. And make sure you don’t get a headache from Tylenol. (Wouldn’t that be ironic?!)
- The TYLENOL Scholarship Fund is for healthcare students. No details are provided as to what precisely qualifies as a healthcare student….
- According to the eligibility clause posted on the University of Chicago at Illinois site, “You may apply for the Tylenol Scholarship if you are an undergraduate or graduate student at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school. This includes those students currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate course of study and who have one or more years of school remaining. Applicants must be residents of one of the 50 states or of the District of Columbia.”

- 2008 Applications are due by May 15 (And yes; that would be 2008….)
- $250,000 has already been set aside for the fund. Up to $100,000 can be added to the fund based on coupon redemptions
- Here’s a link to the scholarship application
Best of luck!
