Patrice A. Hough Endowed Scholarship in Nursing

Gifts to the Patrice A. Hough Endowed Scholarship in Nursing Fund provide scholarship support for an incoming or continuing undergraduate student enrolled in the School of Nursing who demonstrates financial need and/or is meritorious, and is a resident of the State of Connecticut.

Each year about three-quarters of UConn undergraduates apply for need-based financial aid. Only a small percentage—around 15%—have their need fully met. The Patrice A. Hough Scholarship is awarded to Connecticut-based nursing students helps close this gap and enables students to go beyond their classroom education with the confidence that comes from knowing someone believes in them and their abilities.
