Scholarship available for nursing students

Schneck Medical Center is accepting applications for the Dr. Bud Scholarship for registered nursing school students.

Applications for the scholarship are available online at schneckmed.org/scholarships. Applications must be completed in their entirety and returned to Schneck Medical Center in Seymour on or before May 22 to be eligible for consideration.

The Dr. Bud Scholarship was established in honor of Dr. H.P. “Bud” Graessle (1893 to 1977). Born in Seymour, Graessle was a practicing physician and surgeon for 53 years until his retirement in 1971.

Candidates pursuing a course of study to become a registered nurse and have successfully completed their freshman year of a registered nursing program at an accredited school and registered in a registered nursing program are encouraged to apply for consideration.

Primary consideration will be given to residents of Jackson, Jennings, Scott and Washington counties. Acceptance for enrollment at a nursing school is required for the scholarship to be officially awarded.
