Taylor Electric Cooperative Scholarship
UPDATE- March 18, 2020:
Due to current school closings, the 2020 Taylor Electric scholarship application deadline has been moved to April 17. The requirements for letters of recommendations and transcripts have also been adjusted:
- The two letters of recommendations can now be from any two adults (excluding relatives). Letters of recommendations should still be in sealed envelopes if submitted with the application or emailed directly from the evaluator to communications@taylorelectric.coop. If emailing, please note on application.
- Transcripts do not have to be in a sealed envelope. They can be included with the application or emailed to communications@taylorelectric.coop. If emailing, please note on application.
We hope these changes to the 2020 scholarship program will allow for all students who wish to apply to get completed applications turned in. If there are any questions or concerns, please call us at (325) 793-8500.
