About this scholarship
Graduating seniors from a Colorado public high school, including eligible homeschool students with a public-school relationship, who plan to attend a Colorado college or university may apply for Colorado Masons' Benevolent Fund scholarships. A Masonic connection is not required.
Awards are up to $7,000 per year, renewable for four years for a maximum total of $28,000. Applications are distributed through high school counselors and require a personal letter, transcript, college acceptance letter, four recommendations, and a personal interview with a local lodge. ACT/SAT scores, GPA, and financial need are all considered.
The Benevolent Fund supports Colorado students pursuing higher education within the state.
