Baptist Scholar’s Program

The College of Nursing and Health Sciences at Barry University is fortunate to have a longstanding agreement with Baptist Health South Florida that offers students, who have been admitted to the Traditional BSN Option, the option to apply for the Baptist BOND scholarship (Details upon request). A selected group of students, known as Baptist Scholars, complete their nursing studies at Baptist Hospital in Kendall and are subsequently provided potential employment within the Baptist Healthcare system upon completion of the program. Barry University provides substantially reduced Tuition for these highly qualified and motivated students. This scholarship opportunity is available for both the fall and spring semesters.
