Rotary Club of Saint Paul Second Century Scholarship Program

Rotary Club of Saint Paul Second Century Scholarship Program
The Saint Paul Rotary Foundation has established a scholarship program to assist students from high schools in Saint Paul, Minnesota who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs. A renewable scholarship is offered for full-time study at an accredited institution of the student’s choice.

The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarships and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team.
