PSC Alumnus Sandy Sansing inspires, provides scholarships to students

A half million dollars is a bunch of money. And at Pensacola State College, one of the consistently affordable colleges in the nation, that $500,000 goes a long way.


Pensacola business icon Sandy Sansing has donated over $500,000 in scholarships to more than 1,100 PSC students since starting a scholarship at the College in 2002.



Ten of the 28 2022 “Sansing Scholars” met with Sansing at an annual pizza luncheon held Thursday, Oct. 27, in the Dona and Milton Usry Board Room on the Pensacola campus. The College hosts the event each year to allow Sansing to meet and chat with some of the scholarship recipients.
