Harris College announces new scholarships


Fort Worth, TX March 13, 2012




Harris College of Nursing & Health Sciences is pleased to announce a remarkable amount of new scholarship funding for undergraduate and graduate Harris students. These newly endowed and annual scholarships have been made available through the Campaign for TCU.

Since the campaign’s inception in 2006, TCU has raised more than $417 million as a direct result of a number of generous private donors. The University has surpassed its revised goal of $375 million and anticipates continued support through the campaign’s end this May.

TCU has committed $100 million toward a scholarship initiative. These new funds will foster opportunities for Harris College students to make waves in their intended career field. Dean Paulette Burns said, “We couldn’t be happier to offer such great opportunities to Harris College’s bright students. We can’t wait to see what they will accomplish through the generosity of donors who care deeply about TCU students and the future of health sciences.”
