The Solomont Family Nursing Scholarship is provided by the Solomont Family, owners and managers of nursing homes in the Greater Lowell and the Merrimack Valley. The award is given to a senior nursing student who shows superior promise as a professional nurse and whose economic circumstances warrant their receiving scholarship assistance.

The Patricia Tyra Scholarship Award is presented to a senior nursing student who has a career goal of psychiatric or community health nursing and interest in pursuing advanced studies in nursing.

The Shalin Wu Scholarship is awarded to the sophomore nursing student with the highest grade point average at the end of the freshman year

The Shalin Wu Internship provides a stipend to a sophomore nursing student to provide visitation services to local nursing home residents throughout the school year. The intent of the donor is to provide companionship to nursing home residents while offering the recipient a valuable experience in preparation for clinical nursing studies.

The May Futrell Scholarship Endowment provides an award to graduate students based on a statement of need and testimony about the impact that the award would have on their nursing education and career.

The student nurse association is an extension of the National Student Nurses Association (NSNA). All students in the department of nursing are welcomed to join.

This organization is supported by faculty advisors from the department of nursing (Advisors: Dr. Lisa Abdallah and Dr. Mary Ellen Doherty).

The GSO/DON is a key student organization available for all graduate nursing students.  It operates under the Constitution of the University's Graduate Student Association.  Objectives include facilitating professional and social networking among students and faculty, participating in the annual Graduate Student Research Symposium, appointing student representation to Department committees, and orienting new students to the University.  The Nursing GSO sponsors lunches and events for students and faculty each semester to allow for meeting these objectives.  Officers are elected yearly.

Students are encouraged to become members and representatives to the following Department of Nursing standing and ad hoc committees:  the Department of Nursing Committee, the Graduate Nursing Program Committee, the Baccalaureate Nursing Program Committee, Faculty Affairs Committee, and the Student Affairs Committee.  Students may be elected or appointed by the student body. Terms are for one academic year.
