Town of Northborough scholarship applications are being accepted

The Town of Northborough Scholarship Committee is currently accepting online scholarship applications. High school seniors living in Northborough, who are planning to further their education after high school, are eligible.

COMPLETE THE ONLINE APPLICATION by Monday, March 13.

Consideration will be given to the student’s academic standing, financial need, employment and community service experiences, school/extracurricular activities, letter of recommendation, and essay.

The Scholarship Fund does not receive any money from the town budget; it relies solely on the generosity of the community. The number of scholarships and the amount awarded is decided annually by the Committee based on available funds.

Thank you to Jennifer MacNeil Photography, who held a mini-photo shoot in November to benefit the scholarship fund. She donated 100% of funds to the Scholarship Fund–a total of $1,000.

Additional information on the Scholarship Committee can be found on the town website.

Anyone wishing to support the educational journeys of Northborough students can easily do so online, by mail, or by adding any amount to their tax bill payment to benefit the scholarship fund. Follow the Facebook page for updates and upcoming fundraisers.
