New England Railroad Club offers scholarship awards

The New England Railroad Club is calling for applications for scholarship funding from high school seniors, and those already attending accredited colleges, that "are the children, grandchildren and spouses of New England Railroad Club members in good standing."

Applications must be submitted no later than Apr. 15, 2008 to the club at P.O. Box 82, Lowell, Mass. 01853; supporting materials, such as SAT test scores, academic transcripts, or letters of recommendation, must be received at the same address no later than April 20. Applicants also must submit a brief essay describing career goals and personal history.

Winners, chosen by the club's executive committee, will receive funding upon receipt of proof of registration for the fall 2008 academic semester. Previous applicants, and even previous award winners, are encouraged to re-apply.
