In keeping with the spirit of the credit union philosophy of People Helping People, the Ohio Credit Union Foundation is offering three scholarships towards college tuition. The first-place winner will receive $5,000, second place $2,500, and third place a $1,000 scholarship. Students are encouraged to submit video applications February 1, 2022 through April 29, 2022.

The three scholarships are available to student applicants who are:

at least a high school senior;

a member of an Ohio-based credit union; and

plan to pursue an undergraduate degree during the 2022-2023 school year.

To apply for a video scholarship, students create a 1 to 2 1/2-minute video addressing this year's topic:

"How can credit unions attract younger members?"

Video entries can be creative, bold, edgy, funny, simple, serious – or anything in between. Entries will be judged on credit union knowledge, effectiveness in addressing the scholarship question, and originality.

Video entries must be submitted online via the Foundation's website, www.OhioCreditUnionFoundation.org, by 11:59:59 p.m. EDT April 29, 2022. The scholarship winners will be announced Wednesday, May 25, 2022
