Waterbury-based Post University announced Thursday that it was partnering with the scholarship program, Waterbury Promise, to provide financial aid to local students.
Promise scholars who enroll at Post, beginning with the fall 2023 semester, will be eligible to receive up to an annual $5,000 scholarship from the university, in addition to Promise’s own academic year award.
Promise scholars may also qualify for additional campus merit scholarships or financial assistance awarded from the school.
To be eligible, students must be a Waterbury resident as well as attend all four years of high school and graduate from a Waterbury Public School, or Kaynor or Holy Cross. Students must also have a GPA of 3.0 or better and an attendance rate of 90% or better.
Six Promise scholars have already been chosen for the scholarship starting this fall.
