Physical Therapy / Exercise Science
"The
past four years as a college student at Saint Louis
University have been unforgettable. While I did work, I
was able to focus more on my classes and participate in
extra curriculars without worrying about money because
of the scholarship. I am working as a PRN (as needed) at
a hospital in St. Louis and pursuing my master's degree
in Physical Therapy. I will have my master's by the end
of 2004 and, hopefully, my doctorate by June of 2005."

Special Education
I
have felt very honored to be an Ed Posh scholarship
recipient. The generous financial support allowed me to
focus on my education and to become involved in
on-campus organizations during the time that I would
otherwise have spent working. Overall the scholarship
has had an incredibly positive effect on my life to this
point. It has afforded me the opportunity to develop a
resume of achievements that will serve to provide a
great foundation for success in the future."
