Applications must be submitted by Friday, June 9, 2017 and will be reviewd by the OSPA scholarship committee. The winner of the scholarship will be notified by mail.

Grade point average, activities, information regarding student need, and a personal statement explaining the student's reason for entering the field of education will be considered in determining the scholarship award.
 
An alternate will be selected. If the original scholarship recipient is unable to attend school the following year, the alternate will be awarded the scholarship.
