Cassandra Bonilla

“I chose the Scholars program because I knew that I wanted more experience within the St. John’s community, and this would give me that opportunity.”

Frank Dicken

“The HSHS Scholars Program is a fantastic resource. Being chosen for a scholarship not only helped alleviate some of the financial burden of returning to school in mid-life, but the committee’s recognition of my potential gave me a needed boost of confidence that I could be successful at St. John’s College. ... the prospect of using my newfound knowledge and skills to help people as a nurse has energized me.”

Laura Anderson

“I chose St. Johns to start my career because it aligns with my own personal beliefs and values."
