Hello everyone!
I am a senior in high school and preparing for college next year. I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis this past summer. I was just wondering if anyone knew of any scholarships that I could get because I have UC. They have scholarships for practically anything these days and I have been looking but I can't find any for UC. I figure, if I have to have it, it would be great to get some money for it.
Thanks!

There is the 2011 UCB Crohn's scholarship program. I believe there are 30, $10,000 scholarships available :) If you go to www.crohnsandme.com on the left hand side there'll be a place to click that says "Crohn's Scholarships". Might be worth checking out :) Best of luck!

Thanks for the suggestion! I think I will try that.

I couldn't agree with you more, you should benefit in some way because of the UC. We haven't crossed that bridge yet (Liz is 11), but I would suggest visiting with your guidance counselor @ school. Good luck!
