NIH Diversity Supplement Eligibility Requirements

The NIH has specific requirements for eligibility:


- Individuals from racial and ethnic groups that have been shown by the National Science Foundation to be underrepresented in health-related sciences on a national basis. The following racial and ethnic groups have been shown to be underrepresented in biomedical research: Blacks or African Americans, Hispanics or Latinos, American Indians or Alaska Natives, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders.


- Individuals with disabilities, who are defined as those with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, as described in the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended.


- Individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds (see this link for specific criteria).


Please note: Literature shows that women from the above backgrounds (categories A, B, and C) face particular challenges at the graduate level and beyond in scientific fields. However, identifying as a woman, in and of itself will not qualify you for an NIH Diversity Supplement. You must also qualify under one of the above criteria.


Do you affirm that you identify as an underrepresented minority in research, which includes but is not limited to, Black or African American; Hispanic or Latino; American Indian or Alaska Native; Native Hawaiian; and other Pacific Islander. By checking this box you certify that you identify as one of the following categories: Black or African American; Hispanic or Latino; American Indian or Alaska Native; Native Hawaiian; and other Pacific Islander; an individual with a disability, and/or an individual from a disadvantaged background?
