Racial/Ethnic Scholarships/Application
2008-2009 Racial/Ethnic Scholarships
Each year Conference Pennsylvania Conference provides scholarship funds to “persons of racial-ethnic minority background who are affiliated with a United Methodist Church in the Central Pennsylvania Conference.” Last year over $25,000 was distributed to such persons who demonstrated a financial need and met the qualifications regarding conference church involvement.
While most participating students are enrolled in four-year undergraduate programs, there are no restrictions as to major or type of institution. Click here for the two-sided application form. It is each pastor’s responsibility to identify potential recipients of this scholarship, to inform them of its availability, and to co-sign the application as verification that the potential recipient meets the stated conditions for the scholarship.
The deadline for submitting completed application forms for the 2008-2009 academic year is May 15, 2008.
Further information is available from the scholarship coordinator, Dr. Milton Loyer at 717-766-0977 or loyer@lycoming.edu.
