> "This scholarship has truly helped to lift some of the financial burdens off of my family’s shoulders. I was able to pay for books and housing costs, and it will help me come out of college with no debt. College has been a fun experience so far because there are so many opportunities to get involved now and meet new people!"

> * An individual with a visible or nonvisible disability is defined as someone who has, or considers themselves to have, a long-term, or recurring, issue that impacts one or more major activities that others may consider to be a daily function; this definition also includes the perception among others that a disability exists. We know that 90% of disabilities on campus are invisible, as are the majority of those in the workplace, and individuals with all disabilities are encouraged to apply.
