Scholarship Program 2017 for College-Bound High School Seniors

The First Stage of 2017 PSFCU Scholarship Program Has Begun!

Polish & Slavic Federal Credit Union once again is participating in the New York Credit Union Association’s scholarship program, which is offering college-bound high school seniors the opportunity to compete for statewide college scholarships. Scholarships will be awarded up to $1,500 and may be used at a two- or four-year accredited educational institution. 

Students can take advantage of this opportunity by following three simple steps:

1.    Stop in at any Polish & Slavic Federal Credit Union Branch to request a scholarship application form, or download it here; 
2.    Complete the application form and required essay and obtain the required transcripts (an official high school transcript documenting your GPA for grades 9-11, an SAT/PSAT/ACT transcript obtained through high school guidance office), along with the signature of a parent or guardian;
3.    Return the completed application and supportive materials to any PSFCU Branch no later than December 30, 2016. 

There is no fee for submitting an application, but applicants must be:

• members of Polish & Slavic Federal Credit Union;
• college-bound high school seniors at the time of application; and
• attending either a two- or four-year accredited educational institution for the first time in the fall of 2017. 

In early spring, applications will be judged against other submissions statewide. Winners will be announced in May.
