WACOPS Youth Scholarship Program

Do you or a fellow officer have a high school senior or college aged student? Beginning in March 1st of each year, the WACOPS scholarship committee begins accepting applications using our online application process. Students will submit both their application and supporting materials through the online platform. 

The WACOPS Youth Scholarship Program was created to provide scholarship funds for children of current WACOPS members who are in good academic standing. To be eligible, students must be a child of a current WACOPS member, between the ages of 17-21, and submit their high school graduation date or proof of a GED certificate. There will be up to 15 - $1,000 scholarship awards granted to student applicants. Past WACOPS scholarship recipients are not eligible to apply. The scholarship may be used at any accredited college, university, or vocational/technical school upon proof of enrollment.

Submission Requirements:

• Completed online application and essays
• One letter of recommendation from a teacher/academic advisor/coach/employer
• High school transcript and college transcript if 1+ years of post-secondary coursework has been completed
• Resume
