Application Process Begins for CHS Scholarships

All current CHS seniors and graduates are eligible to apply for scholarships through the CHS Scholarship Fund.

The Columbia High School Scholarship Fund is accepting applications for the 2012-2013 academic year. All current CHS seniors and graduates are encouraged to apply. The scholarships are need-based and can be used for ANY kind of post secondary education from trade or technical school, to community college, four year college and even graduate school. The awards are for one year only; recipients have to re-apply each year.

Established in 1923, the fund is the largest provider of need-based scholarships in the Maplewood-South Orange community. Over the years, thousands of seniors and graduates have been able to realize their dreams of higher education thanks to the fund.

Applications can be filled out on-line and printed from the fund’s web site at www.chssf.org.
