The application for SRC Foundation dual credit scholarships for eligible high school students who want to begin earning college credit at Spoon River College is available, and the deadline is July 7. The application is available online by visiting www.src.edu and then clicking on the Foundation/Alumni tab.
The dual credit/dual enrollment program helps high school students get an early start on their college education. By enrolling in specific programs and courses, eligible high school students can take Spoon River College courses for high school and/or college credit, or get job training to start a career after high school.
Through these programs, students and their parents can benefit from discounts, scholarships, and Spoon River College’s already-low tuition rates. High schools who participate are Astoria, Bushnell, Canton, Cuba, Farmington, Havana, Lewistown, Macomb, Rushville, Spoon River Valley, V.I.T., and West Prairie. Home schooled students who reside within these school districts are also eligible to apply.
