There are only a few days left for northern Minnesota high school seniors to apply for an Alworth Scholarship. Applications must be submitted by January 15 at www.AlworthScholarship.org. The $24,000 college scholarship is distributed in $6,000 per year and comes from the Marshall H. and Nellie Alworth Memorial Fund.
“Last year, the Alworth Memorial Fund awarded 95 scholarships of $24,000 each, and we’re planning to assist a similar number of students this year,” Alworth Executive Director Patty Salo Downs said in a press release. “But to be considered, you have to apply! The application process is not complicated, taking only about two hours.”
According to the organization, $58 million in Alworth scholarships have been awarded since 1949. High school seniors applying must be planning to enroll in four-year institutions to pursue careers in the science, mathematics, engineering and medical fields.
Applicants residing in Aitkin, Beltrami, Carlton, Cass, Cook, Crow Wing, Lake, Itasca, Koochiching and St Louis counties in Minnesota are eligible to apply. Additional details and tips can be found at http://www.alworthscholarship.org/
