Nancy Cheadle Scholarship

For Academic Year 2024-25. Dr. Nancy Cheadle touched the lives of her students, patients, and colleagues. She was an inspiration to all who knew her. She was described as a true warrior with amazing strength. Dr. Cheadle battled cancer for over five years and once her journey ended, she wanted to continue supporting audiology students at Idaho State University. As a result, she created a scholarship for students who, in her own words, have “overcome a significant life obstacle”.

The Nancy Cheadle Scholarship is for full-time doctoral students in the Audiology program. Preference is given to students that have overcome a significant life obstacle.
