Apply Here for $4,000 Scholarship
As one of our expanding services to our members, WPMA awards nine merit scholarships annually. The program awards a $4,000 scholarship (paid $1,000 annually) to a deserving student within each of the eight WPMA member states each year, and one to a student from an associate member company. Applicants must be a graduating high school senior and the son or daughter of a WPMA marketer or their full-time employee; or a graduating high school senior who is the son or daughter of an associate member or of a full-time, permanent employee. High school senior students who currently work part-time for a WPMA member company and have worked for the company for at least three months are also eligible to apply for the WPMA scholarship.
