David Bryce Jacquot Scholarship Program
Scholarships
The due date for 2024 submissions is March 15th, 2024.
Submissions without supporting documentation will not be considered.
Please follow directions for each scholarship carefully.
We are currently offering three options for students and young adults depending on the path they have chosen for their future. These scholarships are available to students and young adults from Murphysboro School District, Carbondale School District, and Shawnee School District.
University Scholarship
This scholarship is for students that are applying directly to a four year university. The path of some students takes them from high school directly to a large university and that can be a difficult transition. We hope to assist in making this an exciting opportunity rather than an intimidating one.
Community Scholarship
This scholarship is for students that are applying to a community college, junior college, or any smaller schools not a four year university. After high school, some students may prefer to stay close to home or may have goals that require them to attain an associates degree in their desired field. Does not include trade certifications.
What we stand for:
At Murphysboro Lodge #498, we believe that world is a better place when everyone strives for the betterment of the community around them. We also believe that one of the best ways to achieve this is to assist in the funding of higher education for students in our area. We are dedicated to working within our communities, providing some of the support they need in order to unlock their potential. We want all individuals to envision their goals for the future and to realize they have the ability to make their dreams become a reality.
