Aims
The principal aim of this scholarship program is to offer financial support to current students and to encourage serious and deserving students to continue their studies.
Here at thepoolindustry.com, we understand getting a scholarship is a huge encouragement in order to spend money on studying. Luckily, our 2021-2022 scholarship program is here to support three excellent students.
We will choose three winners for one of three scholarships, of $3,000, $2000, and $1,000 respectively, to use for tuition to an accredited US college for the 2021-2022 academic year. Current college students are encouraged to apply!
