Who Can Apply:
- RJ was a very compassionate person who was always willing to lend a helping hand. He had a faith in Christ and a heart of compassion. He didn’t have the best GPA, but excelled in hands-on work through his trade school program.
- Many students today have big goals for the future but lack the financial resources necessary to achieve them.
- With college tuition and fees alone costing between $9,400 and $36,700 per year depending on school type, a college degree is out of reach for many students. While scholarships and other financial aid options are available, students with low GPAs are often overlooked and left out of many opportunities.
- This scholarship aims to honor the life of Ryan “RJ” Edgmon by supporting students in Arkansas who are pursuing higher education.
- Any high school or undergraduate student of Christian faith in Arkansas who has at least a 2.0 GPA may apply for this scholarship.
