Paving the Way for Future FIU Nurses

Funding Excellence in Nursing Student Education
A generous gift of $250,000 from two longtime supporters of the college and FIU has established the Jorge M. Pérez and Darlene Boytell-Pérez 50th Anniversary of Nursing Scholarship Endowment.
We invite everyone to make a gift to enhance this important endowment, commemorating this important milestone in the history of our program while creating new opportunities for nursing students who demonstrate outstanding scholastic aptitude and passion for the nursing profession.

Distinguished Alumni Awards
Our awards will honor our most esteemed and accomplished graduates who have become inspirations to the college and their communities through their dedication to the nursing profession.
Pictured here are our esteemed 30th Anniversary Golden Panther and Outstanding Achievement Award Winners. Ten years ago, these alumni were honored for their commitment and contributions to FIU Nursing and the nursing profession.
Please note we have extended the nomination deadline to Monday, November 20, 2023.
