NNU's Trustees' Church Matching Scholarships

NNU offers matches to some awards for eligible students who fit specific criteria as detailed below. We strongly recommend you check with your church regarding sponsorship requirements, necessary applications and submission timelines.

 

Trustee Matching Scholarship: A full-time student whose local church awards funds for his or her use in paying University costs will be eligible to receive matching funds on the church's initial maximum contribution of $550. This match is up to 7:1 ($4,400 annually) from Nazarene churches in the Northwest Field, and up to 4:1 ($2,750 annually) for Nazarene churches outside the Northwest Field.

 

The following local non-Nazarene churches receive up to a 4:1 match:

 

- Capital Christian Center
- Boise Calvary Chapel
- Cole Community Church
- Crossroads Community Church
- Eagle Christian Church
- All Treasure Valley Friends Churches

 

All other churches receive a 1:1 match (a $550 annual contribution from a church on your behalf will be matched with a $550 additional scholarship from NNU)

 

NNU will match a church award of up to $550 annually (divided evenly between fall and spring semester each school year), until work is completed on the first bachelor's degree for a traditional full-time undergraduate student; the maximum level of church contribution will remain at the same level it is awarded during your first year at NNU throughout this time. This scholarship must be applied to tuition costs.

 

NYI and Regional Main Event scholarships*: Awards given to students in recognition of excellence in various areas of talent as well as quizzing competitions within the district (NYI) and/or Region (Main Event) each year. NYI awards can be won at a local or national (Q or NYC) level.

 

The student should present a copy of each award to the NNU Financial Aid Office so that the scholarship(s) can be included as part of the students overall financial aid offer. Students must be accepted for admission and be full-time undergraduate, degree seeking, currently enrolled students at NNU in order to receive these awards. Any other conditions for use appear on the certificate.

 

*The NYI and NYC/Q scholarships contain specific directions for the student to follow in order to request that the NYI portion of the funds be sent to NNU (this usually requires a written request from the student to someone within the NYI organization). Once these funds are received, NNU will match these scholarships on a 1:1 basis (up to $500 per academic year). Regional Main Event scholarships are awarded at face value.
