H.B. Fuller has established a scholarship program to assist employees’ children who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs.
The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarships and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor, and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team. Awards are granted without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability or national origin.
There are three different awards with recipients only receiving one of them an academic year. All applications submitted will be considered for the Local Award, with the top candidates receiving a Regional or Global Award instead. The award amounts are the following:
Local Awards
Up to 52 Local awards of $1,000 each.
Regional Awards
Up to $2,500 each to the top four candidates in each region.
Global Awards
Up to $6,000 to the top candidate globally.
For Regional and Global Awards
Award amount is based on actual expenses and cannot exceed eligible expenses for one academic year.
Awards are for qualified education-related expenses only. As listed, awards will cover tuition, fees, books, transportation (other than daily transportation), computers and housing if the student lives away from home. Awards amounts may be adjusted if award exceeds the cost of qualified education-related expenses.
Award amounts are listed in U.S. dollars (USD) and award payments will be issued in USD. Recipients may choose to receive award payments in their local currency when available. Awards may not be paid-out over more than one academic year.
Awards are not renewable, but students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements. Recipients may receive an award from this scholarship a maximum of four times. Global or Regional Awards are one-time only. Students are not able to receive both awards during their academic career. If a student received a Global or Regional award and applies again, they are only eligible for the Local award.
Awards are for undergraduate study only.
Financial need is not considered.
Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of H.B. Fuller play a part in the selection. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
Applicants will be notified of their award status by email in Late May. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as recipients. Students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
Recipients of the local award in the United Sates and Canada will receive their payment made payable to their school, typically by mid-July. Recipients of Regional or Global awards must submit documentation showing actual eligible expenses in order to receive the award payment. Awards are wired to all international scholarship recipients in August, provided required documentation has been received.
One online recommendation form must be submitted on your behalf no later than March 20, 2024 3:00 pm Central Time.
Your application is not complete unless all required documents are submitted electronically through the Scholarship America Student Hub.
