PCC Structurals, Inc./PCC Oregon Operations Scholarship Program
Application status: Closed

PCC Structurals, Inc./PCC Oregon Operations has established a scholarship program to assist children of employees who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs.

This 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.

Applicants to the PCC Structurals, Inc./PCC Oregon Operations Scholarship Program must be:

  • Dependent* children, of active full-time PCC Structurals/Oregon Operations employees (regular status) who have a minimum of one year of employment as of the application deadline.
    *Dependent children are defined as unmarried, natural and legally adopted children or stepchildren living in the employee’s household or primarily supported by the employee as a legally declared dependent.
  • Current high school seniors or graduates, or current postsecondary undergraduates who plan to enroll in full-time undergraduate study at an accredited two-year or four-year college, university, or vocational-technical school for the entire upcoming academic year.

Award Amounts

If selected as a recipient, the student will receive a $6,000 award. Up to three (3) awards will be granted. Two recipients will be selected from applicants whose parent is employed in Oregon and one recipient will be selected from applicants whose parent is employed outside of Oregon at a PCC Structurals Plant. Awards may be renewed for up to three additional years or until a degree or certificate is earned, whichever occurs first.
