Some things to keep in mind before applying:
- The name on the application must be the name of the student applying.
- Please use an email that you check regularly as email is the easiest way for us to contact students.
- There are TWO parts to the application. Once you complete the General Information portion of the application, you must click “Submit Application.” You will have to go to your Dashboard to complete “follow-ups” for the scholarship you qualify for. If you don’t see any scholarships, it means you didn’t meet the requirements of the scholarship.
- Students must submit their official transcripts and a letter of recommendation. Please allow plenty of time to complete this follow-up work. It is the student’s responsibility to make sure their official transcript and letter of recommendation have been uploaded to their application. Only applications that include these documents will be accepted.
- Students who already have bachelor’s degrees are NOT eligible for the Trico Foundation scholarship.
how are scholarships awarded?
A selection committee made up of area educators reviews all scholarship applications and determines which students receive a Trico Foundation scholarship. The committee is independent of the Trico Board of Directors.
I am still shocked that my dream is coming true. I can attend an academically rigorous school and still play the sport I fell in love with. This dream and lifestyle, however, would not be possible without the help and support from Trico. This scholarship and opportunity have kept me focused and well supported from the beginning of my college career, and I couldn't be more grateful.
Trico has made the financial burden of school less of a factor and has opened doors that I did not think would be possible! Thank you for helping me reach my lofty goals for my education! I will never forget the impact of your company on my journey to becoming a doctor.
After graduation, I hope to apply to medical school. I am completely confident in the fact that my application is much more meaningful and notable than it
would have been without the Trico scholarship, of which I am deeply grateful and appreciative.
