BYU Management Society - St. George Chapter Honors 2013-14 Scholarship Recipients


St. George, UT – The St. George Chapter of BYU Management Society recently honored seven area graduating High School Seniors and two college students with cash scholarships to help them continue their education. The scholarships were based on a weighted scale that included academic record, community service, written essay, need based, and extra curricular activities. Not all the recipients are headed to Brigham Young University, nor is it a requirement, as some will enroll at Dixie State University, Utah State University, and Southern Utah University. Over the past six years the St. George Chapter has given out over $50,000 in scholarships to graduating high school seniors and BYU Marriott School of Management students.
