John and Isabel Campbell Memorial Scholarship

The John and Isabel Campbell Memorial Scholarship will annually award renewable scholarships to students graduating from Northfield High School. Each recipient will demonstrate unmet financial need at the four-year college or university they attend in the United States.

Eligibility
To be eligible, the applicant must

  • be graduating or a recent graduate of Northfield High School in Northfield, MN.
  • plan to enroll full-time in an accredited, nonprofit post-secondary two-year or four-year college, university, or technical school in the United States.
  • demonstrate unmet financial need at the eligible post-secondary institution they plan to attend.

Selection
Selection will be based on the student’s academic record, contributions to the communities in which the student lives, the quality of the essay and letter(s) of recommendation, and consideration of unusual circumstances. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Please answer all questions that apply to you, even if they are not marked “required.”

Notification
Application status will be changed from submitted to either offered or denied in June. Applicants can view their status by logging in to their Scholarship Central account.

Renewal
Recipients may reapply for award consideration for a maximum of four years of undergraduate funding provided they continue to make satisfactory progress toward a degree and continue to meet the eligibility criteria. Please note that because the award amounts are based on available funding and financial need that can change from year to year, the amount of this scholarship award may change if a recipient applies for renewal awards in years to come.
