SSU student wins community scholarship

SSU student wins community scholarship
Posted By: How May I Help You NC on March 28, 2016

Denerick NuQuan Simpson, a biology major at Savannah State Univeristy (SSU), is one of four recipients of the Ursuline B. Law Medical Services Scholarship. Simpson has been an intern for four years with Farry Family Dentistry in his hometown of Moultrie, Georgia. He intends to apply for dental school as he approaches his senior year.

The Cuyler Community Improvement Association, Inc. (CCIA) provides a $1,000 scholarship to college and university students studying towards a degree in a medical field. The CCIA is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to the health, well-being and financial productivity of the residents of the Cuyler community in Savannah.



The applicants must be registered, at minimum, in their second year of study with an accredited college, university, or technical school pursuing the study of a medical service field. The current awardees maintained a 3.5 or above scholastic average.

Established in 1890, Savannah State University is the oldest public historically black college or university in Georgia and the oldest institution of higher learning in the city of Savannah. The university’s 4,800 students select majors from 30 undergraduate and six graduate programs in three colleges — Liberal Arts and Social Sciences, Business Administration and Sciences and Technology — and the School of Teacher Education.
