Each Year, the PMT Foundation awards scholarships to local graduating seniors who plan on continuing their education. Over the past 29 years, PMT, and now the PMT Foundation, has awarded scholarships to 40 deserving seniors in the Magic Valley.

This year, the PMT Foundation is pleased to be able to continue the tradition of awarding scholarships. Applications for the 2020 PMT Foundation Scholarships are now available at www.pmt.org or through participating area high school counselors’ offices. The Foundation will award, at a minimum, three $2,000 scholarships in 2020. To be considered for a scholarship, applications are due by March 31, 2020.

The PMT Foundation scholarship is designed to assist graduating seniors who wish to continue their education at a college, university or trade school the summer or fall immediately following their high school graduation.

PMT Foundation Board Members will select the successful applicants based on the information provided on the application. Need is not necessarily a guideline for selecting scholarship recipients, but all items being equal, it may be used in determining awardees. The primary criteria are the student’s academic record, demonstrated achievement or leadership and answers to questions on the application.

For questions regarding the PMT Foundation Scholarship Application process, please contact your local PMT office, or email us at pmt@pmt.org.
