ANSONIA SEYMOUR OXFORD ROTARY CLUB
2025 Scholarships
The Ansonia, Seymour and Oxford Rotary Club is proud to announce that the Club (dba AnSeOx Rotary) will grant three (3) $1,000 scholarships to three (3) graduating high school seniors who reside in the Towns of Ansonia, Seymour and Oxford. The graduating High School seniors must be attending a four-year college or university full time in August/September 2025 to be eligible.
Since the motto of Rotary International is “SERVICE ABOVE SELF,” each applicant is asked to submit a (not more than) 500-word original essay that addresses this theme: SERVICE ABOVE SELF. The essay should reflect on its meaning to you personally. Relate it to your personal experience and articulate the importance of service in your life and to your community, state or throughout the world. All submissions will be tested for AI.
The AnSeOx Rotary Club will make checks payable directly to the college/university of each of the three successful applicants. The awardees must provide the Club verification of the student’s attendance and commitment (e.g., an invoice from college/university showing the student’s name, address and ID number) for this to be accomplished.
The deadline for essay submission is March 31, 2025. Please submit your application via email to [email protected]. Also, include the following information with your essay:
- Name and home address
- Telephone number and Email address
- Name of your high school
- A list of your extracurricular and volunteer activities in the past year
- College/university name, address, and year of attendance
Scholarship recipients will be notified by April 15, 2025, and recipients will be asked to attend a club meeting TBD to share their essay and college goals.
