鈥満诹习倏 is proud to be able to offer the Nebraska Career Scholarship,鈥 said Rachael McLeod, Administrative Director of Resource Development. 鈥淚t continues 黑料百科鈥檚 mission to provide dynamic and responsive pathways to career and technical, academic transfer, and continuing education programs that contribute to personal, community, and workforce development.

 To qualify, scholarship recipients must be enrolled in an eligible Program of Study, live in Nebraska while receiving the scholarship, carry a minimum of nine credits per semester, and maintain a minimum 2.0 cumulative Grade-Point Average.

鈥淣ow, students will also have the opportunity to apply for a Career Scholarship as they prepare to enter fields where our state has a workforce shortage,鈥 said Gov. Pete Ricketts.

The Career Scholarship Act was introduced by Ricketts in 2020 and signed into law by the State Legislature, creating the Nebraska Career Scholarships Program. Its purpose is to grow the state鈥檚 skilled workforce by connecting students to high-wage careers where there is a need.
