The Southwest PGA Foundation Scholarship Selection Committee will review class ranking, grade point average, either ACT or SAT test scores, extracurricular activities, and financial need in determining scholarship recipients. Extracurricular activities will assist the Committee in further evaluating the candidate's interests and abilities. Contributions to the community may be demonstrated by involvement in local clubs, organizations, or associations. These activities should be documented, and attested, by type and year involved. Any distinguished honors or awards should be noted on the application.
Scholarship recipients will be determined by August 7, 2023 and will be notified by the Southwest PGA Foundation. Unsuccessful applicants will be notified and if eligible, will be encouraged to apply the following year.
