A renewable entrance award for incoming undergraduate students in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN) program at the University of Toronto's Lawrence Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing, awarded based on academic merit while also taking financial need into account.
About this scholarship
Established by donors Ron and Linda Hirschorn in memory of Barbara Hirschorn, this award supports one or more incoming undergraduate nursing students each year. Selection is based on academic merit, with financial need also factored into the decision. The available endowment payout is split equally among all recipients each year, up to the full value of tuition — meaning both the number of recipients and the exact award amount can vary from year to year depending on how many qualifying students are selected and how much the endowment generates.
