The Snyder Family Educational Trust established two memorial scholarships through the Western Nebraska Community College Foundation that will benefit qualified Scotts Bluff county high school graduates attending WNCC.
The Wayne I. Snyder Memorial Scholarship will provide $400 annually to a graduating senior who has a GPA of 3.0 or higher and is actively involved in community service and extra-curricular activities. The Robert M. Snyder, M.D. Memorial Scholarship will be awarded to a graduating senior with a GPA of 3.5 or higher who is planning on going into the medical field. Preference for both scholarships will be given to Morrill High School graduates. Students interested in applying for either scholarship should contact the Financial Aid Office at Western Nebraska Community College, 308.635.6011.
The WNCC Foundation supports and promotes education and training opportunities at all three WNCC campuses, awarding $376,000 in scholarships to WNCC students in FY 2012. To donate to the WNCC Foundation, contact Dayle Wallien at 308.630.6551.
