I am interested in improving quality and access to care for our country's most vulnerable populations. The scholarship I received has provided me with funding to pursue an assistantship in the field of palliative and long-term care for elderly and terminally ill populations. Rollins is a great fit for me because it balances rigorous, comprehensive coursework with applied experience outside of the classroom. I am so grateful that this scholarship has enabled me to study at one of the most prestigious public health schools in the world.
