Northeast Credit Union Now Accepting Scholarship Applications

The Northeast Credit Union Scholarship Program has officially started accepting applications for 2022.

The variety of the scholarships offers aid to not only soon-to-be high-school graduates, but also those who are currently enrolled in accredited programs, or with goals to further their education, including those in trades programs.

“By honoring our student-members commitment to their education we empower them to be better versions of themselves, and as a financial partner we couldn’t ask for anything more,” states Chris Parker, President & CEO of Northeast Credit Union. “As a member-owned organization we are committed to giving back to our membership, and what better way to do so than through advancing their education.”
