ScholarshipsRotary Club of Fort Collins and Memorial Scholarships Each year, the Rotary Club of Ft. Collins provides several need-based scholarships to students who have demonstrated the scholarship necessary to succeed in post-secondary educational or vocational programs at CSU or the Front Range Community College (FRCC). Awards are made to graduating seniors selected from Fort Collins High School, Fossil Ridge High School, Rocky Mountain High School, Poudre High School, Centennial High School and Frontier High. In addition, one award is given to a student currently enrolled in a degree or certificate program at the Larimer campus of Front Range Community College. This award is not limited to traditional-aged students. There are also several named scholarships established to memorialize individuals; the James Morrison Memorial Scholarship and the Richard W. Schump Memorial Scholarship(s). These are need-based awards for students who have demonstrated the scholarship necessary to succeed in college. To qualify for awards, all recipients must enroll full-time in degree or certificate programs at Colorado State University or the Larimer campus of Front Range Community College. All awards are $2000 for one academic year. Half of the award ($1000) will be given at the beginning of the academic year. The second $1000 will be awarded if, after the first semester, the student has earned at least a 3.0 grade point average. Selection is based on need, scholarship, community service, and leadership. Each applicant is required to submit a paper in which they comment on Rotary's Four-Way Test of the things we think, say, or do. The recipients of the 2009 scholarships are the following:
