Nicholas Frick is a dedicated Southern New Hampshire University online student pursuing a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts. Before enrolling, Nicholas put aside his pursuit of competing in the 2004 Olympics to serve in Iraq as a U.S. Army infantry soldier. That experience shaped his commitment to helping veterans heal, navigate life after military service, and rediscover a sense of purpose. 

By the time Nicholas was ready to pursue his degree, his GI Bill education benefits had expired. Scholarship support from SNHU donors helps make his education possible. With the flexibility of SNHU’s online format, he is on track to complete his bachelor’s degree later this fall and plans to continue directly into an MBA in Healthcare Administration. His education is equipping him to strengthen his work supporting fellow veterans, expand its reach, and make a greater difference through leadership, mentorship, and care.  

"Thank you for your generosity and for making this scholarship possible. Your support allows me to continue my education at SNHU and pursue work that is deeply rooted in service, healing, and national impact."
