Saia’s 2019 scholarship program is accepting applications! The program is open to full-time employees and their dependents and is designed to help cover college or graduate school expenses for recipients.

Saia will award 20 college scholarships — 10 in the amount of $2,000 and 10 in the amount of $1,000 for a total of $30,000. Awards will be based on qualifications outlined in the packets that were mailed to all full-time employees. The application and guidelines are also available on Saia’s intranet.

As previously announced, to be eligible for consideration, all applicants must be a full-time student and carry 12 or more hours of college or graduate student courses for each semester of the school year applied under. Scholarships will be awarded based on the applicant’s academic achievement, their community service, and/or an innovation or accomplishment in a field of study and interest.

Don’t forget that applications must be postmarked no later than July 12. Recipients will be selected in August and letters will be sent to winning applicants.
