Celebrating 30 years of scholarships.

This year, we’re celebrating the Hutt Scholarship’s 30th year of educational support. Since LMCU originally began as Grand Rapids Teachers Credit Union, we have a special spot for education. This annual scholarship program provides high school seniors with the opportunity to win one of 15 $2,000 college scholarships.

Applicants simply write an original 750-1,500 word essay exploring the topic in new and insightful ways. This year’s topic: “In 30 years, what’s the one thing you hope you still have and why?” Essays are evaluated by a panel of independent judges, with greater emphasis placed on passion for the topic, creativity, clarity and originality.

Entry Deadline: January 31, 2020

Who’s eligible?

All applicants must be high school seniors (includes home school students) and plan to enter a trade school, college or university in the next academic year.

Interested high school seniors must complete an application online at LMCU.org/Hutt. Winners will be announced in LMCU’s May 2020 newsletter and online.
