Three high-achieving students from Donegal have been awarded All Ireland Scholarships for their undergraduate studies.
A ceremony took place in September, where 125 students were awarded full academic financial support for the duration of their third level studies.
The 2022 Leaving Certificate students from Donegal are; Andreea-Gabriela Radu – Scoil Mhuire Buncrana, Jamesie Wray – Pobalscoil Gaoth Dobhair and Tara Ferry – Pobalscoil Chloich Cheannfhaola.
The All Ireland Scholarships were established in 2008 by JP McManus and this year marks its 15th anniversary.
Commenting on the scheme, Scholarship Sponsor JP McManus said: “1,348 successful graduates have emerged with primary degrees and are now either embarking on further studies or in the case of the majority, pursuing successful careers. This figure demonstrates that the key objective – to provide financial support to many gifted young students so they may succeed during their third-level education – has worked. Their drive and determination is admirable, and they should be very proud. We look forward to celebrating the most recent recipients’ achievements at the upcoming ceremony.”
