St. Mary's Bank — a New Hampshire-chartered credit union open statewide to anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school in NH — awards 15 scholarships of $1,000 each per year through its charitable foundation. Applicants must be members in good standing for at least six months before the deadline and enrolling at least half-time in a degree program for the upcoming school year. The application requires three short essays: on financial literacy among young adults, a personal statement (proudest achievement or chosen field), and a community-change reflection.
