Each fall, Christian school seniors are nominated by their Guidance Counselor to compete for the Outstanding Scholars Award Program. Nominees must then complete an application process to compete for the scholarships. Applicants who meet the eligibility requirements and submit complete application packets become semifinalists. In the Spring, a panel of judges chooses the winners in each of the two categories. Seniors must meet all of the criteria listed below in order to compete for the scholarship:

• Score at least a 1300 on SAT (combined reading/writing and math score) OR 27 on ACT.
• Have at least a 3.5 unweighted cumulative GPA.
• Demonstrate an active faith in Christ.
• Receive recommendations from teachers indicating good character, service and leadership within their schools, churches and communities. 

1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, and five (5) Finalist awards all earn cash scholarships that are delivered via check directly to the college/university of choice in the fall.
