North Island Credit Union is encouraging college-bound students in San Diego County to apply for its 2023 Student Scholarship Program. Through the program, the credit union provides $20,000 in scholarships annually to recognize Southern California students who are motivated in their academic studies and active in their schools and communities.
“We’re committed to investing in our next generation of leaders and encourage local students to apply for one of our scholarships,” said North Island Credit Union CEO Steve O’Connell. “We know the costs of higher education have continued to rise and to pursue educational dreams can be a challenge for many. We hope our scholarships make the path to college a little easier and look forward to reviewing the many stories of inspiration in our scholarship applications.”
San Diego County college-bound high school seniors and community college students transferring to a four-year university who maintain a minimum grade point average of 3.0 are eligible to participate. Selection criteria include academic performance, school or community involvement, a letter of recommendation, and an essay submission.
