David Vartak
Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences
Mary Lou Clements-Mann, Ph.D., Scholarship
To be the best, you have to be aware of the latest technology and research. I will
now be able to attend several conferences and workshops to gain more knowledge in
these areas. Apart from this, there are several software programs that I will be able
to buy and use for research. There are also several online courses I will be able
to take to learn how data and computer science can be integrated into biology and
biomedical research. This scholarship will enable me to build a better repertoire,
so I can contribute to the field of epigenetics and cancer research through my work.
Bonnie Forsberg
School of Health Professions
Richard G. Balke Memorial Scholarship
I did not receive many scholarships in my earlier education at other universities,
so to receive a scholarship for a doctorate level degree is quite inspiring. This
encourages me to continue to strive to learn all that I can and put forth my best
efforts in all I do. Pursuing a Doctorate in Physical Therapy has been one of the
hardest things I have done in my life; however, it is invigorating and exciting to
see what can be accomplished when limits are pushed. This scholarship will reduce
my overall stress level by alleviating some of my financial burdens. It will allow
me to attend physical therapy conferences that enrich and further my education as
well as network with working clinicians.
Francesca Lormeus
School of Medicine
Kathleen and Don McPherson School of Medicine Scholarship
This scholarship will allow me to focus on improving my clinical skills during my
third year of medical school. I won’t have to worry about being able to purchase any
necessary textbooks, resources or supplies in order to do well during this time. I
will be able to work hard to ensure that I can be a great physician and have the time
and peace of mind to concentrate on learning.
Natividad Salamanca
School of Nursing
CVS Health Foundation Family Nurse Practitioner or
Physician Assistant Scholarship
This scholarship will help with the cost of my higher education. I will be able to
focus more on learning and less on my financial burden. In addition, with your help
I will have the chance to participate in a study abroad program in the Philippines
to help provide care to the medically underserved!
Ka Yang
School of Pharmacy
Amarillo Area Foundation Scholarship Fund
I am an out-of-state resident that came to Texas looking for better opportunities.
Although my parents are supportive of this decision, they are financially unable to
support me. This means that I am on my own when it comes to funding my education.
This scholarship will not only help fund my education but also qualify me for an out-of-state
tuition waiver that will decrease my tuition.
