Newton Medical Center Foundation has established a scholarship program to assist employees who plan to continue their education in a BSN, MSN, DNP, or PhD program.
The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance, and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor, and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team. Awards for this scholarship are granted to eligible recipients without regard to creed, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, or national origin.
Applicants to the Newton Medical Center BSN/MSN/DNP/PhD Scholarship Program must:
Awards
Up to 15 total awards will be granted. BSN awards will be for $2,000; MSN, DNP and PhD awards will be for $2,500. Awards are not renewable, but students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
Awards are for BSN, MSN, DNP, or PhD study only.
Selection of Recipients
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of academic record, demonstrated leadership and participation in school and community activities, honors, work experience, statement of goals and aspirations, unusual personal or family circumstances, and two letters of support. Financial need is not considered.
Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of Newton Medical Center Foundation play a part in the selection. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
Notification
Applicants will be notified in mid-July. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as recipients. Students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
