FPCA Scholarship Policy

It is the intent of the Florida Paint and Coatings Association (FPCA) to provide an annual scholarship to qualified undergraduate students. While every qualified application for scholarship will be considered, the awarding of scholarship monies will be at the sole discretion of the standing FPCA board of directors. 100% of the funds generated by the sale of advertisements in the Disperser newsletter will be utilized for the scholarship fund. Additional funding will be provided by the FPCA as needed.

No more than four scholarships will be awarded to any one student, and no more than two applications per year will be accepted from any member company. The annual cap and maximum annual award are subject to change at any time at the discretion of the FPCA board.
