2018 NICA Scholarship Application

Dear Applicant,

On this page you will find the 2018 NICA college, university, and vocational/technical school scholarship application. The form will take some time to complete. The guidelines for the NICA Scholarship Program are as follows:

  • Any current NICA member in good standing for 3 years including the current year, child of a current member, grandchild of a current member, employee of current member for six months, or employee member in good standing who will be attending a college, university, or vocational/technical school is eligible to apply.
  • There are 11 scholarships, funded by the Coca-Cola Company, Gene O’Brien family, and the NICA Membership, being awarded this year.
  • All scholarship funds are made payable to the student to be used at their discretion once the winners have been selected and their transcripts have been verified.

The scholarship committee will not review any incomplete applications. The committee will take into consideration not only the content of the application, but also its appearance, spelling and punctuation.

The application, photo, and letters of recommendation must be received in the NICA office via this form, by email, or snail mail as of May 31, 2018.
