Dr. Andrew Gomes Launches National Scholarship Supporting U.S. Veterans Pursuing Higher Education
By Space Coast Daily // July 15, 2025
Houston, Texas — The Dr. Andrew Gomes Scholarship for Veterans is now officially open for applications, offering a meaningful academic opportunity to U.S. military veterans currently enrolled as undergraduate students at accredited colleges and universities across the country. This initiative is led by Dr. Andrew Gomes, a distinguished Texas-based Diagnostic and Non-Vascular Interventional Radiologist, whose career spans over 15 years in advanced imaging and brain injury diagnostics.
With a strong belief in service and leadership beyond the battlefield, Dr. Andrew Gomes has established this scholarship to recognize the personal sacrifices and future aspirations of veterans. The award aims to support veterans in shaping their post-military lives through education, leadership, and community engagement.
Applicants must submit a 500–750 word original essay responding to the prompt: “How has your experience in the military shaped your personal values, academic goals, and vision for your future? In what ways do you hope to lead, serve, or create impact in your next chapter?” Essays will be evaluated on clarity, depth, originality, and alignment with the scholarship’s mission, which reflects Dr. Andrew Gomes’ long-standing commitment to growth, integrity, and civic impact.
The Dr. Andrew Gomes Scholarship for Veterans is open to students of all majors and disciplines, and is not geographically restricted to any particular state or institution. All veterans who meet the criteria—regardless of branch, including Reserves and National Guard—are encouraged to apply. The application deadline is March 15, 2026, and the winner will be announced on April 15, 2026.
Through this scholarship, Dr. Andrew Gomes extends his commitment to service in a new arena—education. His career in medical innovation, particularly in the areas of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Diffusion Weighted Imaging (DWI), and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI), is well-respected across the medical and legal fields. Now, his dedication finds new expression in supporting those who have served the nation and are now shaping their next chapter through higher education.
“The journey of a veteran doesn’t end with service—it evolves,” said Dr. Andrew Gomes. “This scholarship is a small gesture of gratitude and a way to honor that transition by investing in the academic and professional future of those who have given so much.”
This scholarship underscores Dr. Andrew Gomes’ broader philosophy of service, leadership, and innovation. It also builds on his enduring belief that veterans bring unique resilience, perspective, and dedication to every field they enter post-military. By investing in their education, this initiative aims to help these individuals unlock long-term potential and expand their impact on society.
