2010 Mt. Tabor Memorial Scholarship Applications Available

Applications for the 2010-11 Mount Tabor Memorial Scholarship in the amount of $1,000 are due at the church office by June 20. Electronic application forms may be downloaded HERE.

One scholarship will be awarded.

Applicants must be active members of Mt. Tabor Lutheran Church and must be starting or continuing their college education. Previous recipients of the scholarship are eligible to apply; however, priority will be given to qualified students who have not received this support in the past.

Application packets consist of the completed application form, a one-to-three page personal essay, and two letters of support. The essay should identify the student's educational and career goals and discuss why the student has chosen those goals. Copies of school transcripts are not required, but applicants may submit them and other supplementary materials at their discretion.

In evaluating these materials, the scholarship committee will give particular consideration to the thoughtfulness of the personal essays and the applicants' participation in Mount Tabor congregational life, leadership, and volunteer activities.

The form, essay, and letters of support may be submitted electronically to office@mttaborslc.org. In the subject line write "Attention Scholarship Committee." Send return-receipt so you will know your materials have been received.

Supplemental materials and hard copies of the form, essay, and letters may be mailed or hand-delivered to Mt. Tabor Lutheran Church, Attn: Scholarship Committee, 175 South 700 East, Salt Lake City, UT 84102.
