Katharine Roberts Memorial Scholarship
This Katharine Roberts Memorial Scholarship has been endowed by Edward Roberts in memory of his mother Katharine. The scholarship is valued at a percentage of the income on the endowment and will be awarded annually to a student in any year of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (Collaborative) Program.  The first preference in awarding the scholarship will be given to Bachelor of Science in Nursing (Collaborative) Program students from the electoral Districts of The Straits and White Bay North, Lake Melville and Cartwright-L'Anse au Clair (or other Districts embracing the communities in those Districts, which were established by the House of Assembly in 1995). If no suitable candidate comes forward from one of these Districts in any given year, the scholarship may be awarded to a Nursing student from a rural community elsewhere in Newfoundland and Labrador. The scholarship will be awarded on the basis of scholarship standing, but in the case of a tie between two equally deserving students, financial need may be used as a determining factor. The scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards upon the recommendation of the Dean, Faculty of Nursing.
