Nazareth Association scholarship taking applications

The Monroe Evening News has been sent this press release from the Nazareth Association:

Kalamazoo, MI – The Nazareth Association is offering two $1,000 scholarships to undergraduate students who will be a junior or senior attending a Catholic college or university during the 2010-2011 academic year.

Applicants must be full time students and maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA. The application process includes the submission of the Nazareth Association scholarship application, a list of collegiate and extra-curricular activities, all undergraduate transcripts, completion of an essay stating the applicants’ educational and career goals, and three letters of recommendation.  The deadline for the scholarship application is March 15, 2010.

The Nazareth Association is comprised of alumni, friends, and benefactors dedicated to the tradition and mission of Nazareth College, Barbour Hall, Nazareth Academy and the Borgess/St. Camillus/St. Joseph Schools of Nursing.

The scholarship program is intended to support students at Catholic colleges and universities that reflect a purpose and philosophy similar to those institutions.

The Classroom Page is also where my co-workers and I put scholarship announcements such as this one that the foundations and sponsors are asking to be put in the newspaper.
