Our 2020 Youth Tour and Scholarship information
Monitor Telecom has set aside a sum of money to be used for an educational scholarship. This scholarship fund is for the benefit of Monitor Telecom members and their children. To apply, an applicant must certify that they are:
- A graduating high school senior or home-schooled student who has been accepted to attend or intends to enroll at an accredited college, university or trade school next fall.
- A dependent child of a current member in good standing with the Cooperative. “Child” means the biological, adopted, foster or stepchild of a member, a child for whom the member is a legal guardian, or a child residing with the member with whom the member is in a relationship of in loco parentis. “In loco parentis” means in the place of a parent, having financial or day-to-day responsibility for the care of a child. A legal or biological relationship is not required.
Scholarships may be used for tuition, books, supplies and room and board expenses. Payment will be made directly to the educational institution upon verification of registration. If documentation is not provided to Monitor Telecom by October 1st, the scholarship will be rescinded. Scholarships are not transferable to any other person.
Recipients will be selected by a committee appointed by the board of directors. All decisions by the committee, including any decisions regarding the qualifications of applicants and selection procedures, will be final.
This year we will be awarding one scholarship in the amount of $2,000 to a High School senior. Applications are due by 4:00pm, April 17, 2020.
