St. Philip School of Nursing Alumnae Scholarship
In 1920, the St. Philip School of Nursing opened to prepare and educate African American nurses in Richmond, Virginia. The school closed in 1962 and classes were integrated into the School of Nursing of the Medical College of Virginia. During its tenure 791 women graduated from St. Philip.
The St. Philip School of Nursing Alumnae Scholarship was created in 1990 to memorialize the St. Philip School and its graduates. This endowment serves as a continuing reminder of the ideals and achievement of this wonderful School.
The St. Philip School of Nursing Alumnae Scholarship application for the 2024-2025 academic year is now open. This application is only available to students in the VCU School of Nursing. Scholarship funds are intended to supplement/complement other University-level sources. In order to be considered for this scholarship, you must submit a 2024-2025 FAFSA, as this scholarship requires financial need.
The application will close on Monday, May 20, 2024.
