The Diocese of Baton Rouge Catholic Scholarships aim to support students in their educational journey, particularly those aligned with Catholic values and principles. To be considered for this scholarship, candidates must meet certain criteria. Prospective applicants should be active members of a Catholic parish within the Diocese of Baton Rouge. Participation in parish activities and community service is highly valued, as it demonstrates a commitment to faith and community. Academic performance is another key criterion. Students should maintain a satisfactory grade point average, reflecting their dedication and hard work in their studies. Additionally, applicants may be required to submit letters of recommendation from educators or community leaders who can vouch for their character and academic potential. Financial need is also taken into account. The scholarship seeks to assist students who may not have the financial means to pursue their education without this support. Applicants will need to provide documentation that outlines their financial situation to determine eligibility. In some cases, students may need to write a personal essay. This essay should explain their educational goals, how the scholarship will help them achieve these goals, and why their Catholic faith is important to them. The Diocese of Baton Rouge is committed to nurturing the future leaders of the community by making education accessible. This scholarship program is designed to encourage and support deserving students in their pursuit of knowledge and personal growth. By meeting these criteria, students have the opportunity to further their education, develop their skills, and contribute positively to their communities. The Diocese of Baton Rouge looks forward to supporting the academic aspirations of its young members through these scholarships.
