Somerset Rural Electric provides financial assistance to local students who are seeking to advance their education beyond high school. This assistance recognizes well-rounded high school seniors for outstanding academic careers, scholastic activities and community service, not financial need.

Somerset REC awards $1,000 scholarships to selected winners. These bright young students are motivated and excited about embarking upon the challenge of following the varied career paths they have chosen.

Scholarship applications were accepted through April 10, 2023. Winning recipients are acknowledged at the annual meeting in May.
