Sara Nath, a senior at The Gatton Academy of Mathematics and Science and Larry A. Ryle High School, has been named a Semifinalist for the 2024 Coca-Cola Scholars Program, moving to the next round of the selection process to become a Coca-Cola Scholar and receive a $20,000 college scholarship. A joint effort of Coca-Cola bottlers across the country and The Coca-Cola Company, the Coca-Cola Scholars Program is the largest corporate-sponsored, achievement-based scholarship program in the United States.
“My time at Gatton has been life-changing for me. I owe my selection as a Coca-Cola Scholar Semifinalist to the opportunities I have been able to explore through the Gatton program, and to the wonderful counselors, professors, and mentors whose support and guidance has shaped me. I am so honored by this recognition, and look forward to what comes next,” said Nath.
Nath hopes to pursue a career at the intersection of computer science, biology, and business with dreams of building more accessible and equitable healthcare worldwide through computer science innovations.
While at Gatton, Nath has conducted research at Brown University’s Center for Computational Molecular Biology through the Gatton Research Internship Grant program and is a team member at Western Kentucky University’s Center for Energy Systems (CES) Lab.
