A TGCSA member company must still employ the employee during the time the winners are selected in April.

​Scholarships are awarded based on academic merit, employment, and involvement in activities. Additionally, several awards have specific eligibility criteria. By completing one application, students are evaluated for all scholarships in which they are eligible.

​Graduate student applicants must be planning to enroll in a graduate program during the Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 semester at an accredited college or university in the United States.
