Florida National College’s (FNC) nursing student Johanna Delgado was the First Prize winner of the McGraw Hill “Get Connected and Win Video Contest.” As the first prize winner, she will receive $5,000 scholarship to help towards her studies at FNC.
Johanna’s video narrates her personal experience with using McGraw Hill’s My Connect. She shares how she has faced some academic and financial challenges, however with much faith she has “decided not to give up!” Working and studying full time is sometimes difficult, but with perseverance and staying focused on “when there’s a will, there’s a way” attitude she is determined to achieve her educational goals to become a nurse. Using the McGraw Hill “My Connect” helped Johanna develop into an efficient student and gain great study skills. She hopes that through her video, and the accomplishment of winning this contest, other students will be encouraged to enter contests, apply for scholarships, and consider opportunities that come their way. Her message to other students is to follow their dreams, stay positive, never give up, and seek help when necessary, as there is always help out there!
