The Emerging Regions Ministry Scholarship is available to MA and MDiv students who are actively serving in a collegiate ministry position in an Emerging Region. This scholarship is designed to assist students who are underfunded or raise their own support to participate in their collegiate position, therefore consideration for this scholarship will be based on student financial need. If you have a question on whether or not a state is considered an emerging region, please contact the Financial Aid office at financialaid@nobts.edu.
The applicant must be a degree-seeking, graduate-level student.
Recipients must register for and complete a minimum of 18 credit hours in an academic year (Fall, Spring, Summer). Completed hours will be evaluated at the end of each summer.
Recipients must maintain a 3.0 GPA.
Recipients will be required to submit a verification of employment annually.
Students who have a break of a semester or more in their enrollment will be required to reapply for the scholarship.
Written documentation verifying one's current place of service in an Emerging Region will be required of all scholarship applicants. An email detailing the needed documentation will be sent upon submission of the application.
