These scholarships are made possible by the generous donations of individuals and organizations who have chosen to provide their support for students through the NRCC Educational Foundation's Endowed Scholarship Program.

Create a Scholarship

Many donors take advantage of the endowed scholarship program to honor or memorialize family members or others.
In addition to a set of general criteria for all scholarships, donors may specify additional selection criteria, such as designating a preferred major or degree program or a geographical location where the applicant must reside.
The minimum amount to endow a scholarship is $30,000.
This amount may be paid in installments for a period of up to five years.
Funds are invested, the principle remains intact, and the interest is used to award a scholarship each year.
