Clan McAlister of America
Scholarship Program

        As was reported in the MacAlasdair Clan for September, Clan McAlister of America will again be awarding two scholarships in the amount of $750 each to two deserving high school seniors or college freshmen. These students must be children or grandchildren (natural, adopted or step) of an active CMA member whose dues are paid. This year will be the fifth year of the CMA Scholarship Program. Each year of the program we have received more applications than the previous year. There are many smart, talented young people who are McAlisters or related to McAlisters. It is felt that a scholarship program is a way to heighten the interest of our youth in education and in the CMA.

        Applicants have to submit personal information, a narrative autobiographical sketch, along with a resume, three letters of reference (one must be from a current or former teacher, counselor, administrator, etc.), and an official transcript with SAT/ACT scores included. The applicants are rated on grades, test scores, autobiographical sketch, extracurricular activities, community and religious activities, work experiences and references. The scholarships will be awarded to deserving high school seniors or college freshmen who are children or grandchildren (natural, adopted, or step) of an active CMA member.

        A detailed, printable application form is available here.
