Each year, the student ministry of Brentwood Baptist has the honor of presenting college scholarships to members of our church who are attending Belmont University. These scholarships are given in honor of our founding pastor, Bill Wilson.
If you have questions or need further information on this process, please contact Anna Brackins in the student ministry office at 615.324.6126 or [email protected].
CRITERIA
Students need to apply once for each academic year and must meet the following criteria:
- Must be a member of Brentwood Baptist Church or one of its campuses. If you have questions about your membership status, please contact our office at 615-324-6126.
- Must be enrolled as a full-time student, undergraduate (12 hours minimum) at Belmont University for the coming academic year.
- Must complete the scholarship application in full and return to the student ministry office no later than the end of the day on February 16, 2024.
- Must have two (2) letters of recommendation received in the student ministry office no later than the end of the day on February 16, 2024.
Also, please note that children of faculty or staff of Belmont University and graduate students are not eligible for this scholarship. All endowed scholarships are for full-time, undergraduate, “traditional” students.
RECIPIENTS
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of all eligibility criteria. The total amount awarded varies according to the amount of interest accrued in the fund and, therefore, changes from year to year. All eligible applications will receive at least some amount.
Awards are not renewable, but students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
The Student Ministry Office will notify scholarship recipients at the e-mail address provided on or before March 23, 2024.
Note that the scholarships awarded are annual and Belmont usually applies half of the amount to each semester of an academic year.
