The William D. Squires Educational Foundation is a
small non-profit family foundation, created solely to offer
financial need-based scholarships to students only from Ohio.
Although The
William D. Squires Scholarship is primarily a financial need-based
scholarship, applicants must also have a specific
career goal and be highly motivated. The
Scholarship Selection Committee also considers the
student's academic promise. A minimum 3.2 GPA is required.
12 scholarships have
just been awarded to the
Class of 2009. The award is $3,000 and is renewable up
to 3 additional years for a total of up to $12,000.
We would
like to thank all applicants for taking the
time to apply for the William D. Squires Scholarship.
Every year we wish we could offer more
scholarships. There are always so many deserving
candidates.
The foundation
has just past a milestone. With the addition
of 12 new recipients, we are very proud to announce that a
total of 150 William D. Squires Scholarships have been
awarded since The Foundation began in 1999.
There will be 46 scholarship recipients attending 31
different colleges during the 2009-2010 school year. Recipients must be from Ohio but may attend schools outside
of Ohio. To view a complete list
