´óÏóÊÓƵ

We love seeing ´óÏóÊÓƵstudents carry on their family's legacy! If you're an ´óÏóÊÓƵalumnus, and you have a child, grandchild, parent, or sibling currently enrolled in an ´óÏóÊÓƵprogram, they may be eligible for the ´óÏóÊÓƵAlumni Family Scholarship.

Each year, four $1,000 ´óÏóÊÓƵAlumni Family Scholarships are awarded to current ´óÏóÊÓƵstudents. These funds are generated from revenues earned annually by the ´óÏóÊÓƵAlumni Relations Office.

This scholarship was established to support and encourage the next generation of ´óÏóÊÓƵalumni, while giving back to the ´óÏóÊÓƵAlumni family. It's our way of showing appreciation to our alumni and future alumni.
