Are there any pathology travel scholarships still available for CAP 2026?

Hi everyone!

I'm a new third year medical student, and my residency sights have always been on pathology. An incoming pathology resident told me about the CAP Annual Meeting, and how it was such a beneficial experience when she attended last year.

This will be my first time attending the Annual Meeting, and I'm really excited about the opportunity. I was fortunate enough to receive a registration scholarship with CAP, which I'm incredibly grateful for.

Unfortunately, I didn't learn about the travel scholarship until after the application deadline had already passed. Since the conference is in Las Vegas this October, I'm now trying to figure out if there are any other funding opportunities that could help cover part of travel and lodging. I reached out to one of the CAP directors through email, and unfortunately they confirmed that there were no further scholarships being offered for this year.

Does anyone know of any pathology organizations, student programs, state pathology societies, or other communities (even unrelated to pathology) that offer travel scholarships or grants for medical students attending conferences? I would really appreciate any recommendations or advice.

Thank you so much in advance!
