    About this scholarship

    This educational grant program supports current employees of The Peninsula Regent and their dependent children who wish to pursue higher education. Funded by the residents of the retirement community, the program helps cover the costs of attending accredited two-year or four-year colleges, universities, or vocational and technical schools. To qualify, the employee must have completed a minimum of eighteen months of service at the organization prior to the application deadline. Candidates must demonstrate financial hardship, which is evaluated using student aid indexes and cost of attendance figures from federal or state financial aid applications.

    Facts on this page come from the official page and the provider's website. The description is written by CollegesRef. Providers can change amounts and dates; the official page always wins.

    How we check listings

    Every listing links to the provider's official page. Before it goes live, its amount and dates must appear on that page, the link must work and it must pass our scam checks; anything that fails a check waits for an editor. We re-check links every week. Listings not re-verified within six months leave our search until they are.
