Scholarships set for Spanish speakers
Thursday, March 31, 2005 | 9:46 a.m.
Seventy $2,000 scholarships are available for Spanish-speaking, bicultural high-school students who want to pursue careers in the health care industry.
The scholarships, funded by the PaciCare Foundation, the philanthropic arm of PacifiCare Health Systems, are offered on behalf of PacifiCare's Latino Health Scholars program designed to educate and encourage Hispanic students to pursue career opportunities in health care.
High school seniors with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 and who are fluent in Spanish and English are eligible. Applicants must show proof of acceptance into a university, community college or an accredited technical college and must be enrolled in an approved health care program at the time they receive the scholarship.
Applications are due June 30, and are available online at PacifiCare en Espanol, www.pacificarelatino.com, and PacifiCare Health Systems' Website, www.pacificare.com.
