Scholarships

Each spring, Midwest Electric gives $4,500 in scholarships to high school seniors whose parents are customers of the cooperative. The top male and female winners also compete for an additional $19,300 in scholarships from Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives.

Eligible students, with a minimum 3.0 grade point average, will receive an interview at the Midwest Electric office in March. Following the interviews, our judging teams will select six finalists - three male and three female students - to compete for $4,500 in scholarships from Midwest Electric. Judging for the six top students will take place later in March, at Wright State University - Lake Campus, Celina.

The first place male and female students will represent Midwest Electric and compete against high school seniors from around the state at the Ohio Rural Electric Cooperatives scholarship competition in May in Columbus.

Completed applications and grade transcripts must be received in our office usually around mid-February. Contact our office for details and deadlines.
