Funded by Eastern’s annual Bowl-A-Thon, the ECSU Foundation Community Youth Scholarship was started in 1995 and is awarded to academically promising seniors from six local high schools: Coventry, Lyman Memorial, Parish Hill, RHAM, E.O. Smith, and Windham. Students are required to be in the top 25 percent of their graduating class or scored at least 1,000 on the SAT. They are expected to be contributors to the high school and/or community in which they live.

Students are encouraged to file the FAFSA by March 1
