Formed in 1995, the ISSA Education and Scholarship Foundation has been supporting students from ISSA-member families since 1998. In 2023, the scholarship program awarded two scholarships. Applications for 2024 are available here. The deadline for applying is April 15. Winners will be announced at the ISSA Annual Convention in November. The top applicant is forwarded onto the international C.J. Ramstad Memorial Scholarship competition as well.
To qualify, the student or his/her family must be in good standing with the ISSA. The scholarship is based in part on need, and since 2012, each applicant is expected to acquire an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) rating number from the Iowa College Access Network at www.icansucceed.org. To get this number, the student will be required to fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) at www.fafsa.ed.gov. After filling out the FAFSA, the applicant will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) and be issued the required EFC number.
Applications will be judged for neatness, completeness, spelling, grammar and school and community involvement. Student applicants are also asked to write an essay on ‘What Snowmobiling Means to Me.’ Entries are judged anonymously, and all decisions by the foundation are final.
