Dothan, AL, Associate Degree Nursing, Leslie Wilson Summerford Memorial Nursing Scholarship “This scholarship is an answered prayer! I am so honored to receive THIS one and it will be such a blessing to be able to apply it towards my remaining classes. I am so excited to start classes again and learn everything I can in nursing school. This will be my second semester so I am looking forward to venturing into clinicals in hopes that I can find a department that I want to work in after graduation.”
Taylor Hicks
Eufaula, AL, General Studies, WCC Sparks Foundation Scholarship “Receiving this scholarship is truly a blessing. My family doesn’t have the funds to put me through college. So, applying for scholarships and receiving them are a big help. I joined the Trio program when I started my first semester at Wallace as a freshman. Enrolling into the Trio program was a great decision. They have assisted me with problems that I’ve had and encouraged me to finish strong in everything I do.”
Joanne Martinez
Dothan, AL, Associate Degree Nursing, Dothan Service League “This scholarship has lifted a weight off my shoulders as to if I would be able to attend my first semester of nursing school. It is also aiding me in getting the books and materials I need to be prepared to tackle the semester. One thing I enjoy about Wallace is that the instructors make their expectations clear, but are willing to work with individuals if they need it. They want students to succeed. Because of my academic success, I have been a member of Phi Theta Kappa for three semesters. This semester I hope to become involved in the Wallace Association of Nursing Students.”
