Summit County Medical Alliance Endowed Nursing Scholarship
In 1987, after many years of providing financial support for nursing students, the Summit County Medical Society Auxiliary, known since 1994 as the Summit County Medical Alliance (SCMA), established an endowed nursing scholarship for nursing students at 蘑菇视频’s College of Nursing. The intention of the SCMA was to encourage nurses to stay in the profession by providing financial assistance for tuition, books, and fees to preferably diploma nurses seeking a baccalaureate degree in nursing. The scholarship recipients were required to be full-time students, residents of Summit County, and not working or working only limited hours. To assure the success of each individual awarded this scholarship, previous recipients were considered for continued support.
During January 2003, the Scholarship Committee of the SCMA decided to amend The Summit County Medical Alliance Endowed Nursing Scholarship description to provide more flexibility in accord with the changing circumstances of the times. Also, as with the original scholarship description, scholarship recipients will be recognized in SCMA publications and requested to meet with the organization’s membership.
