Each year Country Truck & Auto awards 5 scholarships to high school seniors. There are four $500 awards and one $1,000 award. What makes our program unique is that the awards are given to students who plan on attending a Vocational/Trade School or Community/Junior College. There are fewer scholarship options available for these students and often, they are in more financial need. Many top high school students opt for two-year programs, because the cost of attending a 4-year school is too much for them and their families to afford.
To be eligible, students must be high school seniors and/or be edible to graduate at the end of the current school year. They may attend any public, private, parochial high school; be home schooled; or be attending an accredited high school online. They must also be enrolled in their first year of post-secondary education at an accredited community/junior college or vocational/trade school.
Students are chosen based on their community involvement, work experience, and a letter of recommendation. They must also have a minimum GPA of 2.0. For more information about the scholarship program, contact Rhonda Whistance via email at RhondaW@CountryTruck.net or by phone at (303)857-1281.
