What Others Say:
Thank you very much for the scholarship money that was awarded to me. I am planning on attending Wor-Wic Community College for two years and then transferring to Salisbury University. While at Wor-Wic I will be majoring in nursing and my career goal is to become a forensic nurse. The money I have been awarded will definitely help me in achieving this goal.
