Scholarship Program

The application deadline is July 1st! Scholarship Awards.

Congratulations to Lauren Islaub and Jusung Hwang as the 2009 winners of Northwest’s Opportunity Through Education Scholarships. Lauren and Jusung each received $1500 towards their academic pursuits.

Lauren’s parents, Ann Lapierre and Steve Islaub, are very proud of Lauren who is her fourth year at Simon Fraser University and diligently working on a challenging joint-major in criminology and sociology. While still actively looking at career options, Lauren is particularly interested in putting her education to work with either the Canadian Security Intelligence Service or the RCMP.

Myung-Su and Kyungsook Hwang are also very proud of their son Jusung who will be entering the University of British Columbia to study first year science. Jusung has dreamed of becoming a doctor since he can remember, and it is very likely his interest in science and hard work will help him achieve that goal. In his spare time, Jusung plays clarinet, sings, swims, and keeps his household under control with his black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

Congratulations again Lauren and Jusung, and all the best!
