Local student pursuing career in health care? NHH’s Health Professions Scholarship Committee wants to hear from you!
Applications for Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH)’s annual Health Professions Scholarship awards are due this year by 4:00 PM on Friday, April 18. Two awards of $1,500 each are available in 2025.
Introduced in 2003, the purpose of the Scholarship Program—a long-standing initiative of the Hospital’s volunteer Board of Directors—is to provide financial assistance to students from west Northumberland who are pursuing a career in the health care sector.
Applicants are evaluated on the basis of:
- academic achievements
- extra-curricular activities
- a personal testimonial explaining their interest in a health-care field and
- written references.
All applicants must be enrolled or accepted for enrollment in a full-time study program.
By supporting local students with their academic studies, NHH hopes to continue to encourage community residents to consider NHH in their career path when the time comes to select an employer.
Recipients will be announced at a spring meeting of the Northumberland Hills Hospital Board of Directors.
Information on NHH’s 2024 recipients will be found in our News Archive here.
