The Sandra Banner Student Award for Leadership - Apply for Consideration
The Sandra Banner Student Award for Leadership (SBSAL) recognizes a medical student who has demonstrated an interest in and aptitude for leadership. Up to $3000 is also provided to support this individual’s leadership activities, such as attendance at leadership conferences, formal leadership education, or a leadership elective.
Further information is available at:

A previous list of winners is available at:

(Note: this is the second year the SBSAL award has a category for undergraduate medical students. Past winners have traditionally been residents, and as such, their degree of leadership experience is not expected from an undergraduate student.)
Looking to apply? In order to streamline the process, we’re requesting that all students submit the following to the LEW office via equity.wellnes@schulich.uwo.ca:
- an internal application for consideration

What Happens Next?
The Student Affairs Committee will review and consider all student applications.
