Capital Credit Union invites students pursuing an associate or undergraduate degree or technical certificate to apply for the opportunity to receive one of eight $1,000 scholarships created to assist them in achieving their higher education goals. The scholarship can be used at any North Dakota or Minnesota college, university, or technical school during the 2020/2021 school year.
The scholarship is named in honor of Howard J. Snortland and his 60 years of volunteer service to Capital Credit Union. Snortland was instrumental in helping Capital Credit Union grow from its humble roots to the thriving financial cooperative it is today. He was a relentless advocate of our credit union and the credit union industry and dedicated to educating members, elected officials and local citizens about its cooperative structure, member-centric products, personalized service and community involvement.
Applications are available at capcu.org/scholarship and due by Jan. 15, 2020. All applicants must be a primary member on a Capital Credit Union account. Capital Credit Union employees and board members, as well as their children or direct relatives, are not eligible.
