To All 2025 Boyd County Female Graduates:

 

The Boyd County Republican Women’s Club is proud to offer a $1500 Scholarship to a graduating high school female who is a resident of Boyd County, Kentucky. The applicant must also be registered as a Republican at the time the scholarship is awarded.

(You can register now if you will be 18 by November 4, 2025)

 

The full scholarship will be divided into two checks. The first will be $750 for the fall semester and the second $750 will be for the following spring semester with the stipulation of being registered and maintaining a 2.5 grade average.

 

The applicant must plan to attend an accredited college or university as a full time student beginning Fall 2025.

 

The scholarship will be awarded on the basis of academic achievement, financial need, and the desire to embrace the ideals and values of the Republican Party.
