To apply, please complete the online application form or download the application and return it to us.

The committee considers academic need and the quality of your application, rather than solely academic strengths.
Types of Scholarships
Funds awarded through this scholarship will be deposited directly into the student’s account at the financial aid office of the educational institution where the student has been accepted. Recipients are responsible for providing proof of enrollment, the institution’s address, the address of the financial aid office, and their student identification number. Evidence of completed coursework will also be required.
Scholarships awarded for expenses not incurred with an educational institution (Professional Development Licensing Test Fees, etc) will be granted on a reimbursement basis. Applicants must submit proof of payment in order to be reimbursed.
Applications who were not awarded a scholarship are welcome to apply again! If a previous scholarship awardee wishes to seek additional funds, they are welcome to submit a subsequent application in the timeframes indicated above in the deadlines section. These applications will be considered in the same manner as any other scholarship application.
