The Wright Memorial Hospital Auxiliary is pleased to announce the continuation of its scholarship program for area residents. Students who are already enrolled in or admitted to a degree program in a healthcare field are eligible for the scholarship.
The Wright Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Scholarship Fund was established in 2008 to encourage qualified individuals to pursue or enrich a career in the healthcare field. Scholarships are awarded annually.
Each $1,000 scholarship requires recipients to share their grades and/or school status if requested by the Auxiliary. A student may apply for and receive this award each year throughout his or her degree program.
To be eligible for the scholarship, candidates must have been accepted into an accredited two- or four-year college or university health care program and must provide a copy of the program acceptance letter from the college or university they are attending. Applications also require biographical information, a short essay, and two letters of recommendation.
The Wright Memorial Hospital Auxiliary Scholarship is open to anyone meeting the above criteria whose permanent address is in a zip code that begins with 646xx or 635xx.
Scholarship applications must be postmarked or received by Monday, April 1, 2024, at 5 p.m.
