Scholarship Information
The Nashua West Rotary Club distributes scholarships in four categories. These scholarships, distributed by the Nashua West Rotary Club, range in amounts from $500 - $2,500, and are given to deserving high school seniors from high schools in the greater Nashua area.
Any applicants who receive a Rotary Scholarship from another Rotary Club in the area will become ineligible to receive a scholarship from the Rotary Club Nashua West.
Scholarship applications are available to most of the local high schools (North, South, BG, Alvirne, Souhegan, Hollis-Brookline) Guidance Departments in mid-March. The submission deadline is April 15th. Follow up interviews will be scheduled between May 24th and June 4th.
Scholarships will awarded at one of our Rotary West meetings in June, when recipients and their parents/guardians are invited to attend. We expect the scholarship award ceremony to take place in-person. Specific dates are noted on the application.
The four categories of scholarships are as follows:
The Rotary Scholarship
This scholarship is awarded to high school seniors in the top 10% of their class who display overall excellence in academics, extra-curricular activities, and community involvement. Special consideration is given to financial need. Funds are provided by the Rotary Club of Nashua West.
