Applications for the 2022 Saipan Chamber of Commerce Educational Scholarship Program is now available. <\/p>\n

The SCC Education and Workforce Development Committee is committed to this annual tradition to support students by defraying the cost of pursuing their postsecondary education, thus improving our local workforce, and solving issues impacting our community.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year, SCC will award students who display academic excellence, extracurricular success, leadership force, and volunteerism, pursuing careers needed in our workforce to solve problems related to the CNMI. All awards will be distributed to the following categories:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2022 The\u00a0Chamber Education Award\u00a0is for\u00a0Saipan, Tinian, Rota\u00a0high school graduates or ongoing college residents seeking higher education at the Northern Marianas College, Saipan.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The\u00a0Pellegrino Vocational Education Award\u00a0is for\u00a0Saipan\u00a0residents seeking further training at vocational trades institutions on-island.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Applicants should complete the relevant award application based on their eligibility. Once the application is submitted, the judging process occurs in three parts: application review, essay judging, and the final interview. Scholarship judges are members of the SCC Education and Workforce Development Committee.<\/p>\n

A complete list of eligibility and requirements is outlined in the official SCC Scholarship Application on our website, www.saipanchamber.com\/scholarship-program. Hard copies can be made available upon request.\u00a0<\/p>\n
