We invited diagnostic medical sonography students from across the country to share with us their individual insights on what lead them to choose medical imaging as their field of study and future career. We are pleased to announce our Spring 2020 award recipient, Olivia Newcomer!
Olivia Newcomer is a current high school senior at Dallastown Area High School, Dallastown, PA. In the Fall of 2020, she will be attending Misericordia University pursuing a Bachelor of Science Degree in Diagnostic Medical Sonography. Congratulations Olivia!
The Ultrasound Schools Info student scholarship is a semi-annual, non-renewable $1,000 scholarship awarded to an aspiring sonographer currently enrolled in a CAAHEP accredited diagnostic medical sonography program, or a high school student who has been accepted to a program.
I am very proud of Olivia as she has a wonderful personality and I am confident she will be an asset to our University and to the profession.”
