NORTHBOROUGH – The Northborough Scholarship Committee is accepting online scholarship applications.
The scholarships are eligible for high school seniors that live in town and plan to further their education.
Consideration will be given to applicants’ academic standing, financial need, employment and community service experience, school or extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation and essay.
Applications should be submitted no later than March 13. Applications are available online at https://sites.google.com/view/northboroughscholarship.
The Northborough Scholarship Committee was established in 2001.
The number and amount of scholarships is determined by the committee every year based on the funds available. The Scholarship Fund does not receive funding from the town budget and instead relies on generosity from community members.
In total, $1,800 was awarded in 2022 to Brianna Boeckeler, Aislin Campbell, Erik Lin, Paulina Paradise and Jason Subat.
Community members that wish to support the students can do so online, through the mail or by adding an amount to their tax bill payments to benefit the scholarship fund.
