Gering CSPM Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Oregon Trail Community Foundation
Three separate scholarships designated A, B, and C, will be awarded annually. Online applications must be submitted to the Oregon Trail Community Foundation by April 1st. All applications will be reviewed by the OTCF Scholarship Committee. Deadline for application and supporting documents is April 1st. Winners and alternates will be selected.
Attach copy of official ACT/SAT, high school transcript, and three reference letters to the online application. Final grades for senior year are not required. Recipients are responsible for forwarding college transcripts to OTCF within three (3) weeks of the end of each grading period and must notify OTCF of any address changes. Failure to send transcripts jeopardizes scholarship renewal. Scholarships are paid directly to the school. If the required college GPA is not maintained, or the student is not enrolled full-time (beginning the first semester for which the scholarship is awarded), the renewal opportunity will be forfeited. The scholarship may be rescinded and awarded to the alternate.
