Awards are for undergraduate study only.
Awards are renewable up to three times or until a bachelor's degree is earned, whichever occurs first, on the basis of maintaining full-time enrollment and 3.0 grade point average. Recipients will remain eligible in the event of retirement or death of the qualifying employee. CSFA will determine and announce scholarship recipients in March. CSFA evaluates all applications on the basis of past educational performance and future potential, leadership and participation in school and community activities, work experience, statement of career and educational aspirations and goals, unusual personal or family circumstances, and an outside appraisal. The sponsor member will in turn present the award to the student.
