The Andover Service Club is pleased to announce that the application process for the 2023 Scholarship awards has begun.

Awards are based on academic performance, character attributes, and community involvement, and not on financial need. Graduating seniors and adults entering or continuing their education at a college, professional, or technical school are eligible to apply.

Scholarship applications are available at the Andover Service Club Thrift and Gift Shop, Andover Elementary/Middle School, Proctor Academy, and Merrimack Valley High School. Applications may also be obtained by contacting Mary Phinney at 603 735-5599 or downloaded at AndoverBeacon.com/ASC-Scholarship.

To be eligible for a scholarship, applicants must have a close tie to the town of Andover. Details of the residential requirements are available in the application packet. All applications and supporting material must be postmarked by Friday, April 21, in order for the application to be considered.
