Ashley Dye, a Cleveland University-Kansas City (CUKC) student in Radiologic Technology, was named one of 19 recipients of the Maud Wyatt Recognition Scholarship. The annual scholarship is awarded by the Kansas Independent College Foundation (KICF).
To be eligible for the scholarship, applicants must be full-time students who demonstrate excellence in academics, character, and integrity, are on track for graduation, and have a GPA of 3.5 or above. They also must have “encouraged their peers to build bright, dynamic futures.” One scholarship is awarded to a student from each KICF member.
Dye will graduate from the Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) program in spring of 2024. She is from Eudora, Kan.
In a statement from KICF, President Matthew Lindsey said, “Our 2023 winners show that true leadership goes beyond good grades and academic achievement and encompass the power of community and fellowship.”
The Maud Wyatt Recognition Scholarship was established in 1995 through the generosity of Maud Wyatt, whose bequest has supported the work of KICF and its institutions since 1961. The Kansas Independent College Foundation seeks to develop, promote, and direct unified approaches to selected corporations, foundations, and individuals for financial support of Kansas’ independent colleges and universities.
About the A.A.S. in Radiologic Technology at CUKC
The CUKC program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology. JRCERT is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) for the accreditation of traditional and distance delivery educational programs in radiography, radiation therapy, magnetic resonance, and medical dosimetry.
CUKC students can complete their degrees in as little as two years, receiving an Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S. degree) in Radiologic Technology. The program features focused 8-week evening courses on campus. After specific competencies are achieved, students receive clinical experience in partner clinics throughout greater Kansas City and surrounding communities.
