Part of the Aurora Health Foundation's vision is to be the leading
provider of charitable resources for health care needs, community education,
and patient care in the communities we serve. The Aurora Health Foundation
awards a number of merit-based academic scholarships to deserving students
who will be or are currently pursuing a degree in a health care-related
field*.
Scholarships are awarded primarily on the basis of outstanding academic
achievement, leadership and volunteer activities. However, financial need
may be taken into consideration when selecting scholarship winners.
About
our scholarships
Eligible applicants are those who plan to study at an accredited two or
four-year college, university or technical school for any health related
career* including medicine, nursing, physician assistant, physical,
occupational or speech therapies, medical technology, pharmacy, radiology
technology, etc. Qualified applicants include high school seniors, current
undergraduate and graduate students.
Some Aurora Health Foundation scholarships are renewable, for a maximum
of four years. Qualified applicants are encouraged to apply for all eligible
scholarships through the Foundation because multiple scholarships can be
awarded to particularly deserving applicants. The final selection of
scholarship winners is made by the Aurora Health Foundation Advisory Group.
In 2007, 27 scholarships were awarded to students from Fond du Lac,
Manitowoc, Sheboygan, Waushara and Winnebago Counties. The 2008 Scholarship
Banquet, where scholarship awards are presented, is scheduled for the
evening of Thursday May 8.
*Applicants for the Aurora Medical Center AMG Oshkosh Family and Aurora
Sheboygan Clinic scholarships may pursue a career in any field and are not
limited to the health care field.
Scholarship application
The 2008 Scholarship Program has concluded for the year.

in February.
