Supporting & Advancing Nevada’s Dislocated Individuals
I would highly recommend that any future CNA student at GBC consider applying for the Sandi Grant since it would provide for things that you wouldn’t have to pay for out of your own pocket, as well as help you be successful
This program is amazing, it paid for my class tuition. It was also able to help me pay for my scrubs, textbooks, and other CNA expenses. I recommend this program to everyone
The sandi grant had helped me so much with my journey through college. It completely covered the rest of my fees that my other scholarships didn’t cover and sent me extra money to help with other stuff.
