Holy Cross Fund Scholarships at work

Jonathan '11
Elizabeth '81 and Jude '81 Curtis Scholarship
"I am having a wonderful college experience, both socially and academically. I am a Biology major working toward fulfilling the requirements for the premed program. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy being part of several student organizations. I serve as a Liturgical coordinator, altar server, and communion minister for the campus ministry, as well as doing work study in the Chaplains’ Office. I am involved with SPUD and spend a few hours each week volunteering at a Free Health Clinic. Through this program, I am able to help the community and make great friends at the same time. I enjoy being a part of the executive board for the biology society, and working as a teaching assistant for the introductory biology lab."

Caroline '12
J. Christopher '80 & Catherine Z. Collins '80 Scholarship
"My professors and classes have been engaging and challenging, and the academic opportunities that abound at Holy Cross never fail to impress me. I am so grateful for the generous scholarship that allowed me to attend, and I hope that someday I can return the favor to a Holy Cross student who is in my shoes."

Rosaria '10
Alison Maloney Estep Memorial Scholarship
"Without your kindness I would not be at Holy Cross today."

Sarah '12
Gene P. Grisanti '51 Scholarship
"You have no idea what this extra bit of financial assistance means to me. This was basically the determining factor for my attending Holy Cross. Without this help, I would probably be attending community college in Dallas, which is nothing compared to the experience and academic quality gained at Holy Cross. Once again, a million thank you's”"

Steven '09
Gieriet Sullivan Bowen '86 Scholarship
"I cannot thank you enough for this financial support; it has allowed me to remain at this wonderful institution of higher education for my final year of undergraduate learning."

Samantha '11
The Christopher J. Bodanza '93 Scholarship
"My dad is an excavator, whose business is in new home development. Needless to say, business is down over 80 percent from just two years ago. In this time of economic turmoil, my parents and I really appreciate your generosity and help. Now that I am a sophomore, I have learned what it means to be a Holy Cross student: hard work, great experiences, friendships; the help of professors who show you how to open your eyes to the world…My entire family and I are grateful to you for making it possible for me to get the wonderful education and experience Holy Cross has to offer."
