Joshua J Scott Merit Scholarship Winners
In addition to the Leadership Scholarship winner, the Emily Couric Leadership Forum’s Selection Committee has discretion to recognize one of the nominees with a merit scholarship. A $38,000 scholarship will be awarded this year. The Selection Committee, comprised of community leaders, makes the awards after an application process and personal interviews with the nominees.
The Board recently named our Merit Award in memory of the late Joshua J. Scott, a beloved member of our community who worked with Senator Couric and served for many years on the interview and selection panel for our scholarships, where he was a tireless advocate for offering a merit award.
Here are the merit award winners.
