College Connect Resilience Award
Home Infusion Options; College Connect knows the strength it takes to pursue higher education while managing your health.
Whether you receive home infusions or manage an ongoing condition like IBD or rheumatoid arthritis, staying on top of health can be a full-time job that often leaves little room for other pursuits. When dealing with chronic illness, focusing on the future often requires assistance.
This scholarship seeks to support resilient students balancing academics and chronic care so they can succeed in all of their goals.
Any undergraduate student who has been diagnosed with a chronic illness may apply for this scholarship opportunity if they demonstrate resilience, leadership, or commitment to advocacy.
To apply, tell us what resilience means to you and how you live that meaning as a student with a chronic condition.
Let your story inspire others—and get the support you deserve. Please tell us what resilience means to you, and how do you live that meaning as a college student with a chronic condition?
