In short
The Amgen Scholars Program sets no program-wide conditions on generative AI in applications for now. Host institutions may set their own rules. Applicants who use AI are asked to judge carefully what content is appropriate and to cite in full any sources that are not their own work.
Varies by program. The rule is set in each program's guidelines, so check the one you are applying to.
For applicants
- The Amgen Scholars Program currently applies no specific conditions or restrictions to applications. Host institutions may have more specific guidelines. Applicants are encouraged to read each host's application submission instructions for explicit guidance on generative AI use beyond the general considerations. [1]
- Applicants who use ChatGPT or other generative AI remain responsible for what they submit. They are asked to judge carefully what content is appropriate. As with any other academic writing, they are also asked to cite in full any primary sources that are not their own work. [1]
For reviewers
Amgen Foundation has published no rules for reviewers.

Generative AI in Amgen Scholars Program Applications (opens in a new tab)
At present, there are no specific conditions or restrictions applied to applications for the Amgen Scholars Program. However, Amgen Scholars Program hosts may have more specific guidelines at their institutions, and we encourage applicants to read carefully through application submission instructions for explicit guidance on the use of generative AI beyond the general considerations below.
If you intend to use ChatGPT or other generative AI, please be mindful that your responsibility as an applicant requires a high degree of discernment about what is appropriate content, and, as with any other academic writing, a dedication to fully cite primary sources that are not your own work.
