Scholarship for Nurses with Chutzpah
Chutzpah means courage, confidence, audacity, nerve, and boldness - traits which are vital for success in nursing.
The best nurses are those who are level-headed, sure of their decisions, and not afraid to speak up if they see a mistake being made. Not only does it take confidence to succeed in the workplace, it also takes confidence to get there in the first place. Higher education is an expensive investment, so if students allow self-doubt to creep in, they may lose sight of their goals and give up.
This scholarship aims to support students who are bravely pursuing their academic and professional dreams in the field of nursing.
Any Jewish student who is actively enrolled in a bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degree program in nursing may apply for this scholarship opportunity. Those pursuing degrees as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN/LVN) are not eligible to apply.
To apply, tell us why you’ve decided to pursue a career in nursing and how your faith has played a role in this decision.
