  SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

For several years Unity Rebekah Lodge No. 8 has sponsored scholarhips to graduating Seniors from Boise Valley to attend a university or college of their choice in the State of Idaho.  This includes the University of Idaho at Moscow; Idaho State University at Pocatello; Boise State University at Boise; Lewis Clark State College at Lewiston; community colleges such as College of Southern Idaho at Twin Falls and Northern Idaho College in Coeur d'Alene.

Applications are furnished to area high schools in April and students may apply by completing the application form and submiting two letters of recommendation, up-to-date high school transcripts and an essay  identifying his or her extra-curricular activities, leadership experience, goals and objectives.

Our committee on scholarhips has recognized students'leadership abilities and extra-curricular activities, such as volunteering for community affairs, rather than their grade-point average.  We do, however, expect students to retain an average of 3.2 or better.  Scholarship awards are made prior to graduation ceremonies, so that they may be announced at that time.

The number of scholarhips to be awarded, and the amount of same are determined by the lodge each year.
