Establish a Scholarship - Getting Started
Please fill out the different scholarship options below so that you can start the process of creating your scholarship.
We will use these preferences and ideas as a guideline to write a draft scholarship agreement for your review. We want your scholarship agreement to accurately express your desires for providing financial assistance to our student body. We anticipate that the finished agreement will be the product of several discussions and draft efforts. You may have preferences, or preference options, that you have not listed in this checklist. Please feel free to express your ideas in writing or offer additional preferences where you deem appropriate.
