Scholarship

In 1993, the NYSOBBA membership instituted a student scholarship program to recognize students enrolled in a member institution who embody the ideals of the organization through meritorious service in an on-campus business related activity, through either volunteer work or employment. The John G. Karrer Scholarship is a $1,000.00 award, which is disbursed in two $500.00 payments over the course of the academic year.

Criteria

1. Registered for at least half time at a member school and have completed at least 15 credit hours of college coursework.

3. Enrolled in a degree granting program
