The Questa Education Foundation is excited to announce its newest class of students from Northeast Indiana selected to participate in its nationally distinctive Questa Traditional Scholars program, joining more than 300 scholars currently receiving funding for their college degree.
New scholars will either soon graduate from high school and enter college this fall as freshmen or just completed their first year in their undergraduate degree programs. In addition to the Traditional Scholars program, Questa funds returning college students and adult learners through the Contemporary Scholars program.
Questa is proud to announce the following Questa Scholar recipients:
Each student has unique interests and passions and will be pursuing degrees in a broad array of fields, including biochemistry, criminology, marketing, and chemical engineering, among others. Each student plans to give back their talents to the Northeast Indiana workforce.
The Questa Education Foundation’s one-of-a-kind funding provides the possibility of receiving loan forgiveness up to 75% of the total loan amount. By attending a regional partner school, students can receive 25% forgiveness, and an additional 50% forgiveness by living and working in the area for five years after graduation. This incentive for scholars to live and work in Northeast Indiana helps our businesses and economy grow and benefit from talent retention. Of the students who have graduated from the program, two-thirds are giving back their talent by living and working in the region.
Questa cannot serve students without the support of generous donors and funders. Find out more about our programs and how you can support a student at www.questafoundation.org or call 260-407-6494.
