MEDIA, PA — Delaware County Community College graduate Robyn Pate has received a full-tuition transfer scholarship covering two years at Neumann University, giving the 2026 honors graduate a tuition-free path to continue studying psychology after earning her associate degree in May.

Pate plans to major in psychology at Neumann and ultimately pursue a career as a psychologist.
