Are
you looking for a scholarship? If so, the J. Robert Ashcroft
National Youth Scholarship Program (NYSP) may be what you’re
looking for.
Each year the Alliance for Assemblies of God Higher
Education and Youth Departments of the General Council of the
Assemblies of God sponsor this prestigious scholarship, which
gives financial assistance to outstanding high school seniors
attending Assemblies of God churches.
Up to three district level winners can be nominated
by their district for the National Youth Scholarship. The NYSP
Committee then picks three national winners based on four important
criteria: academic achievement, extracurricular activities, Christian
service, and Christian scholarship, which is granted for the
first year of college, is given to winners who will be attending
one
of the 19 endorsed Assemblies of God colleges the fall immediately
following their high school graduation.
Winners
will receive the scholarship money as follows: First Place,
$8,000 ($4,000 awarded per semester for two semesters);
Second Place, $4,000 ($2,000 awarded per semester for two semesters);
Third Place, $2,000 ($1,000 awarded per semester for two semesters).
If
you are interested in the J. Robert Ashcroft National Youth
Scholarship Program, applications are available
here and are accepted
from January 1st to March 31st each year at the District Youth
Directors’ offices.
