EHG Foundation Scholarship for Children of Tarlton Employees

The EHG Foundation Scholarship for Children of Tarlton Employees will annually award a renewable $2,000 scholarship to a child or legal dependent of an employee of Tarlton who has worked for at least two years at the time of application. Each recipient will demonstrate unmet financial need at the two-year or four-year college or university they attend in the United States.

To be eligible, the applicant must

  • be the legal dependent of a Tarlton employee who has worked for the company for at least two years at the time of application.
  • be a graduating senior, a recent high school graduate, or a current undergraduate student.
  • plan to enroll full-time as an undergraduate in an accredited, nonprofit post-secondary two-year or four-year college, university, or technical school in the United States of America.

Preference will be given to students who demonstrate financial need.

  3. upload a current FAFSA Submission Summary that shows your Student Aid Index
  4. upload a financial aid award letter from the college, and
  5. apply by the application deadline.

The St. Louis Community Foundation is responsible for the evaluation, determination of financial need, selection, and determination of award amount. Selection will be based on the student’s academic record, contributions to the communities in which the student lives, quality of the essay and letter(s) of recommendation, and consideration of unusual circumstances. No application information will be shared with the employer except as aggregated data. 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 August. Applicants can view their status by logging in to their Scholarship Central account. Tarlton will be notified about the award recipient.

Renewal
Recipients may be considered for renewal for up to three additional undergraduate years if a renewal application is submitted in a timely manner and academic and financial eligibility criteria continue to be met. The employee’s employment status with the company will not be considered in the determination of the recipient’s renewal eligibility. 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.
