Ï㽶ÊÓƵ

We love to see Ï㽶ÊÓƵ students following in their family member's footsteps. If you're an Ï㽶ÊÓƵ alumnus, and you have a family member (child, grandchild, or parent of an alum) currently enrolled in an Ï㽶ÊÓƵ program, they are eligible to apply for the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Alumni Family Scholarship.

This Scholarship has been established to support and encourage the next wave of Ï㽶ÊÓƵ alumni members while giving back to the Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Alumni family. We are pleased to award four scholarships annually to family members of past Ï㽶ÊÓƵ graduates.

Four $1,000 Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Alumni Family Scholarships will be awarded to current Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Students each year.

Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Alumni provides these Scholarships as a benefit and a gesture of appreciation to our alumni and future alumni.

• Be the family member¹ of an Ï㽶ÊÓƵ Alumni (family members of Ï㽶ÊÓƵ staff are not eligible);
