The Greater Pitman Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring a textbook scholarship! Each year we will award 4 student-employees with a $250 scholarship to be used towards purchasing their textbooks.
Eligibility:
Are you currently attending a college or university? You will be required to provide proof of enrollment if you are awarded the scholarship. You have worked at a business located in Pitman within the the last two years for a period of 3 months or more.
Application Deadline:
September 30 @ 11:59 PM
How to Apply:
Fill out this form and shoot a video and tell us about your work experience in Pitman.
About the Video:
You'll be required to submit a short video introducing yourself. Include your name, school, major, and tell us about your experience working in Pitman. Where did you work, what did you do, what skills did you learn? How would the scholarship help you? Make sure you have enough light in a room when shooting your video. Your video should be 60-120 seconds long.
How do we choose the winner?
Funding is limited and priority is given to students with unmet financial needs and those submitting quality videos. We will also contact your employer to verify your employment status and their recommendation.
How do I know if I was chosen to get the funds?
A GPCC board member will notify you of your scholarship award via email.
Are there any restrictions on how to spend the funds?
If selected as a recipient, awardees should note that scholarship funds may be used towards purchasing new or used textbooks. Reimbursement for books already purchased is also acceptable.
