Applications for 2026 will be available in November.
Every year a $1,000 scholarship opportunity is available through our wholesale power supplier, Basin Electric Power Cooperative.
These scholarships are considered an investment in the economic future of rural areas. Recipients are selected on the basis of academic record, potential to succeed, leadership and participation in school and community activities, honors, work experience, and a statement of education and career goals. The scholarships must be used for educational costs, and the student must attend college in the fall of the school year for which the scholarship is awarded.
