All Saints Lutheran Church Scholarships

ASLC Scholarship Applications Due by April 15
Please note that applications for ASLC Scholarship awards are due by April 15!
Scholarship application forms are located in the links below. The forms are easy to complete, taking less than 10 minutes. The ASLC Scholarship Committee is happy to assist.
The ASLC Scholarship award, established in 2003, is given to students of the ASLC congregation attending a college, university or trade school. Scholarships are not based on financial need or any other qualifiers such as grades. Awards are funded by the generous contributions of members and friends of All Saints.  
If you would like to support the youth of ASLC in this way, please consider donating to the ASLC Scholarship Program. You may donate weekly, monthly, or yearly during our May Scholarship Campaign. All money collected goes to students. If you have questions or need additional information, please contact the church office.
