CTCU Scholarships
CTCU Scholarship opportunities help local high school teens fulfill college dreams!
Cooperative Teachers Credit Union (CTCU) is pleased to offer four $2,500 scholarships per academic year that are available to high school seniors attending school within our field of membership. The scholarships are in honor of Tommy Tomlinson, Elmer Wynne, Mary Clift and Ed McMillan.
Information on how to apply is given to high school counselors at the first of each calendar year to distribute to interested students. Scholarship funds will be sent directly to the winners’ designated College or University, on behalf of the student recipient, before the payment deadline for the Fall semester.
