Scholarships

The Board of Directors of New Mexicare Inc. is proud to offer scholarships for students majoring in healthcare fields.  Applications are available and may be picked up at the SRHS counselor’s office, the hospital, or online (see Submission below). This is a four-year scholarship valued at a maximum of $4000 for community college ($500 per semester for up to 8 semesters), and $6000 for university ($750 per semester for up to 8 semesters). 

New Mexicare Inc. offers two scholarships. One scholarship is intended for high school students from Guadalupe County (majoring in healthcare) and a second scholarship is intended for returning students majoring in a healthcare related field.

This is a competitive scholarship based on merit and quality, and must be earned.  Neatness, completeness, and effort matter and will be taken into account.
