Neu Brothers Holdings, Inc. Employees Scholarship Program
Neu Brothers Holdings, Inc. has established a scholarship plan to assist employees’ children who plan to continue education in college or vocational school programs. Renewable scholarships are offered each year for full-time undergraduate study at an accredited institution of the student’s choice.
Neu Brothers Holdings, Inc. Employees Scholarship Program
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.

Payment of Scholarships
Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of Neu Brothers Holdings, Inc. Payments are made in one installment in early August.
Selection of Recipients
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of both academic and non-academic criteria using a modified Scholarship America recipient selection procedure.

Non-academic evaluation includes:

- An online recommendation
Financial need as calculated by Scholarship America must be demonstrated for the student to receive a renewable award. Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of Neu Brothers Holdings, Inc. play a part in the selection. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
