FORT WAYNE – Questa Education Foundation announced the 2021 spring and summer graduating class.

This graduating class includes 92 students from Adams, Allen, DeKalb, Huntington, Kosciusko, LaGrange, Noble, Steuben, Wabash, Wells and Whitley counties. These Questa Scholars have received their associate, bachelor’s or master’s degrees in various fields including business, computer engineering, criminal justice, education, mechanical engineering and various medical fields, according to a news release from Questa Education Foundation.

Questa Scholars receive low-interest forgivable loans that are up to 50% forgiven if they live and work in northeast Indiana for five years following graduation. An additional 25% of the total loan can be forgiven when they attend and graduate from one Questa’s regional partner institutions. In many cases, scholars are graduating with 75% of their Questa loan forgiven.

Below are the names of Questa graduates from Kosciusko County, the university they attended, as well as their program of study while in college:

Luis    Cervantes, University of Saint Francis, physical therapy assistant; Camden Cox, Grace College, environmental engineering; Johnathan    Engle, Grace College, undecided; Madelene Johnson, Indiana Wesleyan University, nursing; Delaney    Keirn, Trine University,    civil engineering; Morgan    Leamon, Indiana Wesleyan University, nursing; Kayla    McAllister, Grace College,    elementary education; Bayly    Perry, Grace College, nursing; and Sarah Schmucker, Ball State University, special education and moderate-intense intervention.

“Questa has helped me not only by funding a part of my education, but also by helping me realize all of the amazing opportunities that are in this area,” said Adam Veeley, Questa scholar and recent graduate from the University of Saint Francis. Veeley started a new position at Circle Logistics in Fort Wayne shortly after graduating with his business degree in May.

Funding for the Questa Scholars program comes from local foundations, businesses and individual donors. For more information on how you can fund scholars in your community, visit their website at www.questafoundation.org or call at 260-407-6494.
