Description
Park Side Credit Union has developed an annual scholarship program that awards local high school students who show excellence as unique individuals. The purpose is to recognize innovation and a creative passion for accomplishment, and this scholarship specifically identifies those students who are extraordinary and enthusiastic.
Park Side Credit Union will award students with a $1,000 scholarship to be used in pursuing their passion in college/university, trade school, or some form of entrepreneurship. Evaluation will take place immediately following the entry deadline and conclude by April 17th, 2026 – during this time, a committee of Park Side Credit Union employees will review the applications and select the winners. All decisions are final. The scholarship dollars will be awarded by April 30th, 2026.
Qualifications
The scholarship program requires that the applicant is a graduating senior at a local high school within Park Side’s field of membership that includes eleven counties in western Montana (Flathead, Missoula, Liberty, Toole, Glacier, Lincoln, Lake, Sanders, Mineral, Ravalli, and Beaverhead).
Selection Process
Student applications must contain all the requested information and will be judged on completeness, accuracy, professionalism, creativity, and vision. Park Side Credit Union reserves the right to select the winners independently without influence.
