Tower Family Foundation Scholarship
The Tower Family Foundation has a limited number of private merit-based undergraduate degree scholarships to offer to NATE Member Companies’ employees and their dependents. The review and evaluation of all scholarship applications will be based on specific requirements related to academic achievement and the responses to the written essays. Additionally, scholarships are available to a severely injured or permanently disabled tower worker or a legal dependent of a permanently disabled or deceased tower worker.
Tower Family Foundation Scholarships will be awarded in the early summer timeframe for the student’s upcoming academic year and shall be made payable to the educational institution on behalf of the student. If the applicant applies and is awarded a scholarship for the Fall semester, the scholarship award will be for the full academic year.
The scholarship award is intended to supplement any financial aid package received by the applicant and can be used for tuition/fees and other expenses charged by the institution, such as books, laboratory fees, and supplies.
Scholarship Terms:
Tower Family Foundation Scholarships are valued at up to $5,000.00 per year for full-time students (carrying a minimum of 12 semester hours) and up to $2,500.00 per year for part-time students (carrying a minimum of 6 semester hours).
A scholarship recipient may apply for an additional scholarship for the next academic year provided a cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.0 is maintained and for merit-based applicants, a verification letter of continued employee or dependent relationship to a NATE Member Company in good standing is provided. Scholarships are renewable annually (for up to four years for full-time students and six years for part-time students).
Thank you for supporting me and my family through my nursing school journey. May God continue to bless you as you bless others.
