The Rotary Club of Joliet proudly awards three annual scholarships to students enrolled in healthcare‑related programs at Joliet Junior College, University of St. Francis, and Lewis University. These scholarships are designated for tuition only.
About the Application
Applicants will complete a short essay addressing their volunteer experience, chosen field of study, and academic/career goals. In keeping with Rotary International’s guiding principle, “Service Above Self,” students will also be asked to describe how they demonstrate service in their daily lives and how they plan to apply this value in their future profession.
