Scholarship Policies:

​

Members wishing to submit a Scholarship Application for themselves, their spouse, or their dependent child must fill out a Membership Application and pay the membership fee no later than December 31 of the board year (as stated in Article IV of the CBSC Constitution).

​

A member may not serve on the Scholarship Committee or as a judge of applications or essays if they wish to apply for a Scholarship or if a Scholarship Application is submitted by their spouse or dependent child.

​

Scholarships are merit based and are judged using a blind process (numbers are assigned to applicants so judges do not know their names).

 

Checks are given directly to the recipient. Monies will be used toward tuition, fees, books, and other academic expenses.  If an applicant is the recipient of an academic or athletic 4-year scholarship (a.k.a. “full ride”) or receives an appointment to one of the military academies, their scholarship may be used to offset fees related to their academic courses (for example: a required laptop computer) or the scholarship award must be declined or returned.
