WOODBRIDGE, Va. -- Northern Virginia Community College for the first time has awarded full two-year scholarships to incoming students enrolled in their honors program. And three students from high schools in Prince William County made the cut.
Ianna Alhambra, and Maria-Vera Alverez of Freedom High School, and Ana Quinteros-Gomez of Woodbridge Senior High School, will all receive scholarships to cover the cost of in-state tuition, books, and travel abroad for two years at the college also known as NOVA.
A total of 19 students from schools across the region received scholarships, and those students who will be in the Honors Program will have smaller class sizes, which, school officials say, will allow more time for academic exploration and one-on-one coaching with professors.
