Thank you and good luck to all who applied for the 2018 Carl Parsell Scholarship. Applications are no longer being accepted for the 2018-19 school year.

In March and April, the Scholarship Selection Committee begins the selection process which is completed in May. Scholarship recipients will be notified of their status by the end of May 2018. Carl Parsell Scholarship winners will be formally recognized during the 28th Annual Carl Parsell Memorial Golf Outing on June 7, 2018.

Carl Parsell Scholarships may be used to cover a portion of educational expenses, including tuition, living expenses, and other required fees during the 2018-19 school year. Scholars may use the award to attend any United States accredited university, college, community college, junior college, two or four-year accredited degree-granting institution, or vocational training institution that grants a certification or license. Scholarship candidates must have completed a high school education or its equivalent, on or prior to June 30, 2018.

To date, $115,500 has been awarded in scholarship funds. Funds derived from The Carl Parsell Memorial Scholarship Golf Outing determine the number of scholarships to be awarded annually. The maximum award available per student is $2,500. In July and August, The Carl Parsell Scholarship Fund mails Scholarship checks to each Scholar’s college or university.
