Every year we provide €50,000 to members through our scholarship funds. Supporting members with their educational pursuits is extremely important to us here at HSSCU.
A reminder that applicants are required to have joined HSSCU prior to March 1st in the year of application.
Whether studying for a degree, diploma, masters or any further education course, you can apply for a HSSCU scholarship. So far we have helped members pursue physiotherapy courses, art courses, disability studies and more. We also help fund education courses with HSSCU Education Loans and our annual Betty Noone Memorial Bursary. Also applicants will need to complete the following:
- The applicant must have an account in their own name to apply.
- A minimum balance of €50 (excluding the entry fee for HSSCU’s Member Prize Draw) must be maintained in this account for a minimum of 6 months prior to the application closing date.
- There must be a minimum of 1 transaction per month (not including the Member Prize Draw) on the applicant’s account.
- Scholarships are available exclusively for the payment of college fees. All repeat fees, if applicable, are borne by the student.
- Applicants will be required to submit a typed essay (400 – 500 words) entitled “How HSSCU’s Scholarship Would Assist Me in Furthering My Education/Career”. Handwritten essays will be excluded.
Applications are not yet open. We wanted to remind people about the requirements for applying for our €50,000 Scholarship.
