State Employees Association of North Carolina (SEANC) Scholarships
(Merit-Based)
First established in 1974, the SEANC Scholarship Program provides endowments to SEANC members, their spouses, and their children to attend technical schools, community colleges, trade schools, junior colleges, or four-year universities on a full-time basis. SEANC also offers a need-based scholarship for state employees and their families.
Two merit-based categories of scholarships are available:
- Based on academic merit and character of the applicant. Financial need is not a consideration. This scholarship is available to SEANC members, their spouses, and their children.
- Reserved for SEANC members only (not spouses or dependents), who are full-time state employees enrolled in a minimum of six semester hours of undergraduate work or 3 semester hours of graduate work at an accredited post-secondary institution.
Value: Awards are $500 for community colleges. The scholarships are nonrenewable, but previous recipients may reapply for funding.
