How it works
- Regional scholarships of $1,000 are awarded by the student's local Everence office.
- From the regional winners, Everence awards three national scholarships – one of $2,000 and two of $1,000. This means the top three recipients will receive scholarships totaling $3,000 or $2,000.
- Applications are accepted from Jan. 1 through Feb. 28 for the upcoming academic year.
How recipients are chosen
- Leadership activities and honors, awards or recognitions received.
- Community, extracurricular, employment and other activities.
- Written essay on a relevant topic chosen by Everence.
