Prestigious scholarship for Loreto student

Peter Rogan, who left the College in June 2016 and is now reading Medicine at Queen’s University, Belfast, has been awarded an All-Ireland Scholarship.

The scheme, funded by J P McManus, was established in 2008 to support many gifted young students across the whole island of Ireland, giving them extra financial support to enable them to participate in all aspects of college life during their third level education.

Peter achieved four A* grades in his A level subjects – Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics, and received the Principal’s Award as Loreto’s top A Level achiever at the College’s recent Prizegiving. He will be presented with his scholarship at a ceremony in Limerick in November.

Peter was congratulated on this wonderful achievement, and wished well on his further studies, by Mr Michael James, Principal of Loreto College, on behalf of all the staff and students of the College.
