EPIC Pharmacies, Inc. is committed to the future of independent pharmacy. Through our Student Grant Program, we provide financial assistance to individuals pursuing a career as a community pharmacist, helping reduce some of the costs of attending pharmacy school.
Our member pharmacies play an important role in supporting the next generation of pharmacists. Our members identify and connect with students in their communities and recommend those who are interested in becoming an independent pharmacist. A letter of recommendation from an EPIC Pharmacies member is required to complete our Student Grant application.
Our scholarship committee has reviewed the applications and selected the 2026 recipients:
Konstantina Kortesis, High Point University Fred Wilson School of Pharmacy
Hannah Shoffner, Union University College of Pharmacy
“Growing up as a daughter of two independent pharmacy owners, I saw firsthand the impact a local pharmacist has on their community, says 2025 EPIC Rx Student Grant Program Recipient, Madison M. “This scholarship has been transformative for my education, providing the financial support to travel to national conventions and professional meetings. I am incredibly thankful to EPIC Pharmacies for their unwavering support of students like me and for everything they do to champion the future of independent pharmacy!”
Applications for the 2027 Student Grant Program will be available on January 1, 2027. Congratulations to our 2026 recipients!
