TIPS for Applicants:

Remember to tell your story whenever possible. Use the narrative sections to tell as much about yourself as possible.
Many of our scholarships are interested in students who graduated from local High Schools. Emphasis your participation in local High School activities, even if it was some time ago.
You don’t have to be studying nursing. Some of the scholarships simply want you to be enrolled in health related studies.
The more you share the better. Don’t short change yourself by leaving spaces blank or incomplete.
