Illinois Mutual Employees’ Children Scholarship Fund

This scholarship program was established by the Illinois Mutual Life Insurance Company to support the children of its employees. Eligible applicants include graduating high school seniors, current undergraduate college students, and vocational school students who plan to enroll full-time. Candidates must be the biological, legally adopted, or stepchild of a regular full-time or permanent part-time Illinois Mutual employee, and the child must reside in the employee's home. Selection is based on academic performance, citizenship, leadership potential, and scholastic achievement. Recipients are allowed to reapply in subsequent years. The funding can be used at any accredited two-year or four-year college, university, or technical institution.
