Union Scholarships

Union Scholarships

There are many organizations across the country that sponsor scholarship programs that provide awards to those who have union affiliation, either directly or through a family member. A union affiliation means that an individual is connected or associated with a certain work force or worker’s union. These types of awards tend to have very specific requirements for the affiliation, and usually require some proof of residency. If you are a future or returning college student interested in receiving assistance for union affiliation, look into the Union Scholarships to find the right type of scholarship for your interests.
