Jointa Galusha, LLC has established the Jointa Galusha, LLC – Town of Hartford Scholarship Program to assist permanent residents of Hartford, NY, who plan to enroll in full-time undergraduate study at a two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school.
The program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarships and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team.
Eligibility

- Be high school seniors, graduates, or current postsecondary undergraduates.
- Be planning to enroll in full-time undergraduate study at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school for the entire upcoming academic year.

Awards are not renewable; however, students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements.
Awards are for undergraduate study only.
Notification
Applicants will be notified in June.
Notifications are sent via email. When setting up your account, avoid using a school or work email. Instead, use an active, personal email address that you will continue to have access to.
