Consortium Member Scholarships

AMERC typically reserves $100 per projected student for individual scholarships from each grant awarded. That is, if a member school requests $10,000 and projects 15 seminary students will participate in the course, AMERC makes a course grant of $8,500 and reserves $1,500 for scholarships.

The following guidelines apply:

• The maximum scholarship award per individual is $500.
• Sponsoring schools should refer requests for scholarships, from the AMERC pool, directly to AMERC. Referring schools may elect, but are not required, to make recommendations.
• Individual requests to AMERC may be mailed, faxed, or emailed and should include a brief (one paragraph) description of need, the amount requested, and the source of the remaining required tuition.
• Upon approval, scholarship checks will be sent to the school sponsoring the course, designated for credit to the requesting individual.
• In the event individuals are unable to apply for scholarship, sponsoring schools may access approved scholarship funds by providing names, descriptions of need, amount requested, and source of the remaining required tuition.
