People's Alliance Federal Credit Union's 2020 Scholarship
PAFCU is offering college-bound high school seniors the opportunity to compete for statewide college scholarships through the New York Credit Union Association's Scholarship Program. Scholarships will be awarded ranging from $500 to $1,500 and may be used at a two- or four-year accredited educational institution.
Students can take advantage of this opportunity by completing three simple steps:
- Stop in at any PAFCU office to request a scholarship application form, or click here to download an electronic application. If the student is not a member of People's Alliance, he/she can request a membership packet as well. (All scholarship applicants are required to be members of a participating New York credit union.)
- You and your parent or guardian must sign the Certification and Release Authorization on the back page of the application form.
- Submit your signed application directly to People's Alliance by June 30, 2020, along with:
- a high school transcript documenting your GPA for grades 9-11;
- an SAT/PSAT/ACT transcript; and
- a typed essay response.
If any portion is incomplete or not included, the application will not be considered.
There is no fee for submitting an application, but applicants MUST be:
- Members of People's Alliance 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 2020
In early spring, applications will be judged against other submissions statewide. Winners will be announced in July.
