Thank you for your interest in applying for a scholarship from the Peach State FCU C.A.R.E.S. Foundation!
We offer a number of scholarships to seniors in high school and professionals seeing career advancement. Our Scholarship Program typically begins in December each year. At that time, we provide details about all of the scholarships that are available, eligibility requirements and instructions on how to apply. Please visit our Scholarship Program page for more information.
Important Tips
- Eligibility criteria varies by scholarship.
- Seniors applying for one of our student scholarships do not need to be members of Peach State FCU.
- Do not submit multiple applications. Your application will be considered for any scholarship for which you are eligible (award amounts may vary). Applications to more than one of our scholarships will not increase your eligibility or chances of being selected.
- In order to apply for one of our Legacy Scholarships, the applicant must attend a public school that is in our service area or a private school that is one of our Select Employee Groups (SEG). View a list of SEGs by county on our Membership page.
- In order to apply for a Career Advancement Scholarship, the applicant must currently be employed and be a Peach State member in good standing with an active account that has been open for a minimum of one year (personal accounts only; business accounts are not eligible). Additionally, you must currently be enrolled in an accredited program of study at a college, university, or technical institute with the goal of career advancement. For your application to be considered for this scholarship, you must attach proof of paid registration documents that show you are enrolled for the current term in an accredited program.
