    Katherine “Kate” Geiger was a devoted nurse, wife, mother, grandmother, and lifelong caregiver. The Katherine Elizabeth Geiger, R.N. Memorial Scholarship honors the life and legacy of this amazing woman. The scholarship supports New Jersey students pursuing nursing or healthcare studies who demonstrate academic promise, compassion, and a commitment to serving others, reflecting the values that guided Kate’s life and career. Born in Bound Brook, New Jersey, in 1936, Kate followed her calling to nurture and heal by earning her nursing degree from St. Peter’s Hospital School of Nursing in 1957. She went on to serve for over 50 years as a registered nurse in Labor and Delivery at St. Peter’s Hospital in New Brunswick. Throughout her distinguished career, Kate was recognized as Nurse of the Year (1985) and received a Lifetime Achievement Award (2010) for her extraordinary compassion, dedication, and service. Kate, a proud mother of eight children, exemplified the ideals of faith in action, lifelong learning, and professional excellence. Kate was known for her warmth, humor, and steady grace under pressure—qualities that inspired generations of nurses who worked beside her. The Katherine Elizabeth Geiger, R.N. Memorial Scholarship celebrates her lifelong commitment to caring for others, community service, and lifelong learning.Show Less

This scholarship is funded by Scholarships360’s own Maria Geiger, who started her journey toward a B.A. at the same time that her oldest son Will started college. Maria knows firsthand how challenging it is to raise a family, have a job outside the home, and attend college, but would not change the way she did things for the world. Mothers who have a desire to earn their college degree bring unique perspectives that greatly enhance their learning experiences; for some, motherhood is a vocation that enlightens like no other. If you are a mother over the age of 35 who feels that the time is right to begin your academic or career journey, please apply! Please note that applicants will be reviewed based on both the quality of their essay and quantity of scholarships applied for on the Scholarships360 platform.

    📝Sample Essay from a Scholarship Winner



    Here's a winning scholarship essay from Dimiti M, who won our "Outstanding Undergraduate" Essay Scholarship. Read the essay below and keep scrolling for some commentary on what made this a winner.

    Prompt: Please share specific examples of how earning this scholarship will help you achieve your educational and career goals. If applicable, include any proactive steps you have taken to secure funding for your future degree.

    Essay

    Earning the Outstanding Undergraduate College Scholarship will help me achieve my educational and career goals because it will help alleviate the financial burden of a college education. My short-term goal is to earn a mechanical engineering degree to pursue a Department of Defense job, preferably in Japan. Since my dad is an active duty member of the Navy, I want to follow in his footsteps through engineering. My long-term goal is to create a nonprofit organization to raise awareness for the United Nations' seventeen sustainable development goals. The first step to achieving that is by obtaining my bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. I want to contribute to the cause directly rather than simply spreading awareness anonymously through social media and behind a screen. I've always lived in small communities, so having the opportunity to compete among thousands of other individuals is a dream of mine. My intense passion for engineering and work ethic will allow me to rise above many challenges and give way to some of the world's most significant innovations once given the proper resources. My persistence to improve not only my field of study – but life itself – will allow me to make great strides in mechanical engineering and eventually – the world.

    Why it worked



    In only 250 words, Dimiti convinces us that he has thoroughly researched his educational and career path. While not all undergrads have this level of clarity about their future, it's a good idea to be very specific and definite in scholarship applications. This convinces scholarship readers that the student takes their education seriously and that the funds will be put to good use.

    Dimiti also does a good job of describing his personal motivations for the path he's chosen. He describes how his father has informed his goals, and he lists the values he believes will help him achieve everything he hopes to.

    Tips for college juniors

    As a junior, you’re halfway through your time at college. Can you believe it? Senior year and graduation will be here before you know it, which means making the most of your time has never been so important.

    Junior year is a great time to start looking for internships within your major. You can use our internship guide to get started with that process! And for those internships that require a little more, take a look at our article for how to write an internship cover letter.

    Or perhaps instead of internships, studying abroad is on your horizon. If so, check out scholarships that can help fund your study abroad experience!

    Frequently asked questions

    Is junior year of college too late to apply for scholarships?

    It’s never too late to apply for scholarships! During your junior year, you can apply for scholarships to help make your senior year more affordable, or you can look for scholarships to pitch in towards a graduate degree or other program post-grad. There are many scholarships out there reserved specifically for people of your grade level.

    Will outside scholarships reduce my financial aid if I am already in college?



    Some colleges reduce need-based aid packages if a student receives additional outside scholarships. It’s a good idea to check in with your financial aid office before applying to outside scholarships to ensure that you would actually benefit from the scholarship money. Some schools will not reduce your need-based aid at all, others will reduce it by a proportion of your scholarship earnings, and others might reduce it by the exact amount of your scholarship.

    So, be sure to check with your financial aid to see how these scholarships would affect your financial situation. But don’t worry – you’ll never end up with less money overall as a result of winning a scholarship.
