Area high school seniors with an eye on college in the fall are getting their ducks in a row – or have already gotten their ducks in a row – to be ready for their next adventure once those high school tassels have been turned in a few months.
But those students with an interest in pursuing a health or medical career have an opportunity to apply for a scholarship to offset tuition costs.
Triangle North Healthcare Foundation is offering a scholarship that will be awarded to one student in each of the four counties that TNHF serves – Vance, Granville, Warren and Franklin – to the tune of $10,000.
Students should submit completed applications to their guidance counselors by March 11, 2022. Each high school in the four-county region may nominate one candidate. The scholarships will be paid directly to the schools in 2 $5,000 payments.
Winners will be announced in the spring. Funds may be used for tuition, room, board and books.
