 McNeil Consumer & Specialty Pharmaceuticals, makers of the
 Tylenol family of products, has announced that students
 preparing for health-related careers can apply for one of
 160 grants from the Tylenol Brand Scholarship Fund.

 This year's fund will total $250,000, including ten grants
 of $10,000 each and 150 grants of $1,000 each. To be eli-
 gible, applicants must be pursuing an undergraduate course
 of study in the fall of 2002 at an accredited two- or  four-year

 school. This includes those students currently enrolled in
 an undergraduate course of study and who have one or more
 years of school remaining. Scholarship recipients will be
 selected on the basis of leadership in their community and
 school activities, grade point average, and intended focus
 on healthcare-related areas of study. The program is
 administered by the Citizens' Scholarship Foundation of
 America, Inc., a national, nonprofit educational support
 and student-aid service organization.
