Scholarship Applications Available

2025-26 Scholarship Applications now available

Each year, the Scholarship Committee of First United Methodist Church awards scholarships to church members who wish to pursue a post-secondary education.  This includes, but is not limited to, graduating high school seniors, students already attending college, other adults returning to college, and seminary students.

Scholarships are funded through named endowments and other gifts to the church specified for scholarships. Students are eligible to receive a scholarship from the church for up to five years, provided they meet the scholarship requirements. A new application is required each year.

Completed 2025-26 Scholarship Application packets are due at the church by Friday, January 17 at noon.

The application due date is in January in order to help students who are applying for other matching United Methodist scholarships. Earlier scholarship award decisions and announcements will also facilitate spring recognition of FUMC’s high school seniors.

If you have any questions regarding the scholarship process, please contact Donna Fisher, Scholarship Committee chairperson, by phone at 316-393-6486 or e-mail her at [email protected].
