Scholarships Available
to Local Students
Every year Wauna Credit
Union (WCU) awards higher education
scholarships to student members. The
annual scholarships are one of many ways
that WCU gives back to the communities
that it serves.
Recipients must have graduated
from high school within the last fi ve
years and be a member in good standing
of WCU. Former winners are eligible
to re-apply. The WCU Scholarship
Committee determines the number and
amount of scholarships to be awarded
depending on the number of applicants.
Scholarships are awarded for post-high
school education. The scholarship may be
used for tuition, room, board, books and
fees.
Applications are now being
accepted through April 15, 2017.
Scholarship winners will be notifi ed
in June, 2017. The application form is
available through a link on the home
page of the WCU website, at any WCU
branch, and at the local high schools.
Applications may be returned to any
branch or mailed to:
