Posted on July 28, 2025.
The Ascension St. John Foundation honored our 2025 Nurse Scholarship recipients. These outstanding students represent the heart, compassion and dedication that define the nursing profession and our outstanding team at Ascension St. John.
A total of 34 student nurses representing 15 different nursing education programs received scholarships this year. They represented programs that include The University of Tulsa, Tulsa Community College, Rogers State University, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences, Oklahoma State University and more.
The foundation provided $82,000 in academic scholarships to nursing students from several eastern Oklahoma communities. We applaud their achievements and are so proud to help support their journey as healthcare professionals!
St. John Foundation scholarships are provided through three separate donor funds:
- Peter H. Morley Nursing Scholarship

Applications will re-open in Spring 2026 for the next round of scholarships.
