Congratulations to all 2025 scholarship recipients!
Annually, students are encouraged to apply to MHS Association’s two educational scholarships – the Elmer Edigar Memorial Scholarship and the Miller-Erb Nursing Scholarship. Between the two grants, six students are selected to receive a total of $17,000 in educational funding for tuition costs, book fees, and other related course fees.
The selection criteria considered for both scholarships include financial need, self-identification as a student from an underrepresented background, responses to essay questions, attendance at an Anabaptist college or membership in an Anabaptist church, strength of references, and employment by a member organization at the time of application. All scholarship recipients are selected by the MHS Association scholarship committee, consisting of MHS Association staff, board, and member organization leadership.
The two $2,500 Miller-Erb undergraduate scholarships available for students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) are awarded to Rachel Chelimo and Emmanuella Nwaogu, both students at Goshen College.
The four students studying in the field of behavioral health or developmental disabilities selected to receive the $3,000 Elmer Ediger Memorial scholarship are Eliza Mast at Messiah University, Hailey Elgan at Goshen College, Kristinell Fowler at Arizona State University, and Danyelle Evan at the University of Massachusetts Global
Congratulations to all 2025 scholarship recipients!
