NAACP Chester Branch Scholarship
The Chester Branch NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) has a longstanding tradition of recognizing students who have demonstrated academic achievement. Students selected will be awarded scholarship funds to assist them with expenses associated with college, technical or trade schools.
NAACP Chester Branch student scholarship recipients will be selected by the NAACP Chester Branch Scholarship Committee after review of application materials. Academic and guidance counselor references, academic standing, commitment to the academic program, and other specified criteria will be considered. Parameters for selection include commitment to academic studies, merit, character, citizenship, leadership, community/religious/school involvement and volunteer activities.
Students must submit an application and all required information, student/parent/guardian/school counselor signatures by the deadline of Friday, April 17, 2026, to naacpscholarship@yahoo.com. Incomplete applications (without an official transcript, attendance records, essay, two reference letters) and applications received after Friday, April 17, 2026, will not be accepted.
We encourage all interested students to apply.
