Alumni Descendant Scholarship
The DHSON Alumni Association annually sponsors a scholarship for nursing education to be awarded to the descendants of graduates of the Deaconess Hospital School of Nursing in Evansville, Indiana. Up to $15,000 in scholarships will be distributed to the most qualified applicants for the express purpose of providing assistance to a student pursuing education in order to obtain a license for Registered Nursing.
It is the alumni members’ desire that preference be given to scholarship applicants who are entering their first year of schooling in the pursuance of a nursing license.
