Amy and Anna Trujillo have established The J & J Trujillo Memorial Scholarship Program to assist students from Arizona, New Mexico and Minnesota 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 J & J Trujillo Memorial Scholarship Program must be:
Award Amounts
If selected as a recipient, the student will receive a award up to $12,500. The award amount cannot exceed the total cost of tuition, fees, books and supplies.
Awards are one-time only. Past recipients may not reapply.
Selection of Recipients
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of academic record, demonstrated leadership and participation in school and community activities, honors, work experience, statement of educational and career goals and objectives, unusual personal or family circumstances, and an outside appraisal. Financial need, as calculated by Scholarship America, must be demonstrated for the student to receive an award.
Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does Amy or Anna Trujillo play a part in the selection. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
Notification
Applicants will be notified in mid April. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as recipients.
Payment of Scholarships
Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of Amy and Anna Trujillo. Payments are made in one installment in early August.
