The CBC Spouses Education Scholarship Fund was established in 1988 in response to federal cuts in spending for education programs and scholarships. This program provides tuition assistance to enable students to fulfill their higher education goals. The scholarships are awarded in the Congressional Districts of each member of the Congressional Black Caucus. This year marks the second that Congressman Scott has offered the CBC Spouses Education Scholarship to 13th District students. The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) Spouses Scholarship is offered to students in the 13th Congressional District, which includes part of the City of Atlanta and portions of 11 counties: Clayton, Fulton, Gwinnett, Dekalb, Rockdale, Henry, Newton, Walton, Fayette, Butts and Spalding. The scholarship is open to high school seniors or full-time undergraduate, graduate or professional school students with a minimum 2.5 grade point average. All completed applications must be returned to Congressman Scott’s Jonesboro District Office no later than 5:30 p.m. on Friday, April 1, 2005.
