Cooley Dickinson Calls for Nursing Scholarship Applications
NORTHAMPTON — Cooley Dickinson Hospital announced scholarship opportunities for area students who display scholastic aptitude and passion for the nursing profession. Effective immediately, the hospital’s Development Office invites applications for two scholarships, the Cooley Dickinson School of Nursing Alumni Scholarship and the Louise Finn Nursing Scholarship.
The Cooley Dickinson School of Nursing Alumni Scholarship is awarded to a senior attending high school in Northampton who is pursuing a career in nursing.

Each applicant must submit a competed application and a 750-word essay. The essay should explain why the applicant wants to pursue nursing as a career, how their goals demonstrate their commitment to healthcare and the community, why they would like to receive the scholarship, and what relationship they have with Cooley Dickinson.
