Upper St. Clair High School junior Anoushka Barve was recently selected as a 2025 Carson Scholar. She will be recognized with a $1,000 scholarship, medal and a certificate at the Carson Scholars Fund’s Annual Pittsburgh Awards Banquet on Sunday, April 6, 2025, at Acrisure Stadium.
Anoushka is a member of the Speech & Debate team and participates in the Model UN, Model EU and Future Problem Solving programs. In addition, she has completed the I Look Like a Cardiologist program, sponsored by UPMC Heart and Vascular Institute, and the Health Professionals Prep program at the University of Pittsburgh Schools of the Health Sciences.
“Anoushka was chosen because she demonstrates the highest standards of academic achievement, integrity, and civic and social responsibility,” Rachel Brown, scholarship director for the Carson Scholars Fund, said.
Founded by Ben Carson, neurosurgeon and former secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Carson Scholars program recognizes talented and dedicated students in grades 4 to 12 who are committed to making a difference in their communities.
