McLeod Nurse Chandler Creech was able to obtain her BSN degree thanks to a McLeod Health Scholarship.

McLeod Health is currently accepting applications for scholarships. Nurses like Chandler Creech are grateful for the assistance McLeod offers.

“With the help of the McLeod Health Scholarship Program, I was able to obtain my Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from Francis Marion University,” said Creech. “The McLeod Scholarship was the only reason I was able to offset some expenses and obtain my degree on a full-time credit schedule and timeline.”

The purpose of the McLeod Health Scholarship Program is to provide financial assistance to students who have been accepted into an approved program of study in an identified healthcare employment area of need. The scholarships available are for tuition only with amounts varying with respect to the area of study. McLeod is recruiting motivated students whose core values align with those of the organization to work at one of its eight locations following the completion of their academic program.

The application process is on-line and can be found by visiting: mcleodscholarship.smapply.org. The open enrollment period is from March 1 to April 30 for internal and external applicants and will be awarded in Fall 2020.
