August 10, 2016, New York, New York – Each year, nationally renowned cosmetic dentistry firm Linhart Dentistry awards a dental scholarship to an exceptional student. Jared Ellinger is the latest to win this $1500 scholarship. The Ohio State University College of Dentistry student impressed the team at Linhart Dentistry with his drive, compassion and desire to benefit others through his skills and learning. “My dream has always been to return to this area with the highest degree of training and expertise, and to raise the standard of care within this community,” Jared said in his application essay.
“We were overwhelmed by the response to the scholarship program, and the decision was certainly not an easy one,” says Dr. Zachary Linhart. “Jared Ellinger’s submission was compelling and inspiring. He really put effort into working his way up to be a dentist and seems to have a real drive to improve not only himself, but the profession as a whole. We couldn’t be more proud to support his impressive academic goals.”
Jared Ellinger’s submission was chosen out of more than 40 that came from across the country. Ellinger is a D.D.S. Candidate, Class of 2018 Veler Scholar, Class of 2018 Treasurer and DACS Vice President, and the Linhart Dentistry team is confident that he will be a valuable asset to his community and the dental profession as a whole.
