Altra Foundation Altra Rocks Scholarship

Are you currently enrolled in a certificate program or working towards your undergraduate or graduate degree? 

Thanks to money raised through ticket sales of the Altra Rocks concert series, the Altra Foundation created the Altra Rocks scholarships.  These scholarships are available to our Wisconsin and Minnesota members who are facing financial hardship or demonstrate a financial need. 

To be eligible for this scholarship, students must:

• Be an Altra Federal Credit Union member located in Wisconsin or Minnesota
• Age 18 or older
• Must have a minimum cumulative 3.0 GPA
• Be currently enrolled in one of the following:
  • Certificate Program
  • Two- or Four-Year US college (Undergraduate)
  • Graduate Program (Masters, Doctoral)
• Currently facing financial hardship or demonstrate a financial need

 

Financial hardship is defined as a student experiencing difficulty paying tuition and fees, usually due to a change in their financial situation.  Financial need is defined as the difference between the cost of attendance and your ability to pay tuition and fees, after scholarships and grants have been applied, or have a household income of less than $50,000.

 

We will be accepting applications for this scholarship October 1 - October 31, 2023.
