Applicants must be high school seniors at Buena Vista High School, Salida High School, Cotopaxi High School, or students in non-traditional programs or home-schooled students who plan to attend an accredited college or community college full-time next fall. CCH scholarship recipients are eligible for and encouraged to apply to CCH for an additional scholarship after the completion of their first semester to help them meet college expenses for their second year.
Last spring the Humanists awarded eight scholarships of $1,500 to high school seniors and three $1,000 scholarships to previous recipients following the successful completion of their first college semester.
Scholarship candidates should have a 3.0 GPA and must have exhibited some form of community service during their high school career.
Evaluations will be based in part on the quality of an essay (limited to 750 words) to be submitted by each applicant. Scholarship recipients will be announced at the respective high school’s awards assembly in May.
Applications are available by email from scholarships@centralcoloradohumanists.org.
