Scholarships helped GMercyU attract and retain exceptional students, and enhance accessibility, affordability and inclusivity.

Without your generosity, I would have had to pause my academics and try to come up with the finances to continue my education. Receiving this scholarship means more to me than I am able to express. Nursing has always been a passion to me, and your support has made it possible for me to continue to pursue my dream of becoming a nurse.
