"I love my time at CC and am thrilled to study engineering at SVC, whose culture closely matches. This scholarship places me in a great position to be fully involved on campus as I am at CC," Henry stated.

The scholarship competition gives out five scholarships totaling more than $879,000. As the first-place finisher, Henry was awarded a four-year, full-tuition, room, and board scholarship valued at more than $223,000.
