How do I apply?
To apply, please submit a completed
Scholarship Application Form along with all required documents. For verification purposes, applicants must supply a copy of the letter of approval issued by the school district after their free & reduced price lunch application is processed. Districts can generate a copy at any time upon request. For students who do not participate in this program but still qualify, a copy of the benefits received from TANF, Basic Food/EBT, FDPIR, McKinney Vento Act or foster care can serve as an equivalent document.
When is the deadline?
The legislative session runs from January through March in short sessions (even numbered years) and January through April in long sessions (odd numbered years). Applications are accepted up until one month prior to the scheduled paging week of the student.
How will I know if I received a scholarship?
We will call each awardee to congratulate them on their scholarship award and explain the process to their parents/guardians.
Are scholarship recipients still eligible to earn the $65 per day stipend?
Yes! Scholarship recipients still receive the full page stipend.
How will I receive the scholarship?
Recipients will receive a check on the Monday of their assigned page week. They can then cash the check in the State Treasurer's office located on the Capitol Campus.
Does applying for the scholarship provide an advantage when being selected as a page?
