2014 ISAC Scholarships will be
available in early September.
In 2013, ISAC awarded six $2,500 scholarships, and six $1,000
scholarships.
The scholarships go to high school seniors who are the children of
county officials and county employees.
ISAC has had a scholarship program for about 17 years.
In addition, in 2013 ISAC awarded a $2,500 Past President's
Scholarship.
ISAC's technology affiliate, Iowa Counties Information Technology
Organization, also awarded two $1,000 scholarships in 2013 to high
school seniors interested in studying technology in college.
All of the scholarship winners are recognized at a ceremony that
takes place every year as part of the business meeting at the ISAC
Spring School.

*Regarding the additional District 3
scholarship, these monies were made
available for a one time scholarship
when ISAC District 3 was dissolved
last summer.
They had funds remaining when
they closed their account and a
decision was made to donate this
money to the ISAC scholarship
program with the stipulation that
this money would be given as an
additional one time scholarship to
an applicant from ISAC District 3.
This allowed the third runner
up, Shelby Wollmuth to be granted
the $1,000.00 scholarship and Summer
Wulf the $1,200.00 award.

The ISAC Scholarship applications are distributed and posted on the
ISAC website in early September, and then a copy appears in the ISAC
magazine in November. Applications are always due in mid-December. We usually get between 90 and 100 applications. The scholarships are
funded by the ISAC Education Foundation. A large part of the funds
are gained from the annual ISAC Scholarship Golf Fundraiser. The
2013 ISAC Scholarship Golf Fundraiser will be held at Otter Creek Golf Course on August 22, 2013.
