The Norbert Siegfried Scholarship Program

Sons and Daughters of Employees Scholarship Program

Overview

The St. Anthony’s Medical Center Norbert Siegfried Scholarship for Sons and Daughters of Employees is open to dependent children of the Medical Center’s full time and regular part time staff (who have been employed at least one year) who demonstrate financial need as full time undergraduate students at a regionally accredited four year Missouri college or university or at any of Southern Illinois University’s five campuses. Employees of SAMC are not eligible to apply for this scholarship. Recipients may reapply for scholarship consideration for a maximum of four years of funding provided they continue to meet eligibility requirements.

At least $300,000 in scholarship awards for the sons and daughters of St. Anthony’s employees is made possible annually through the generosity of the St. Anthony’s Medical Center Foundation Board of Directors.

Applications will be evaluated on the basis of past academic performance and potential for continued success, and the quality of the essay and recommendations. Selection of the recipients and the scholarship amount, ranging from $2,000 to $10,000, will be determined by the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation from information provided by the applicant, the school, the applicant’s family and the post secondary institution. Scholarships will be used to meet unmet need or to reduce or replace loans or campus work. The only financial information that will be released to the sponsoring organization will be the award amount. Please note that because the award amounts are based on financial need that can change from year to year, the amount may change if a recipient applies for renewal awards in years to come.

High School seniors and current college students with a cumulative 3.0 grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) are encouraged to apply. Application may be obtained from the SAMCare intranet site, Education office or from the Medical Center’s website www.stanthonysmedcenter.com or the website of the Greater Saint Louis Community Foundation: www.gstlcf.org.

Each applicant will be notified by mail of his or her status in the competition by early June. Scholarship recipients will be expected to attend a reception in their honor.

The application materials must be postmarked to the Community Foundation by April 15.
