Summerland's Rising Stars Scholarship
We’ll be offering a two-year scholarship to support a new Bachelor of Business and Enterprise student at Southern Cross University.
Summerland has had a long association with Southern Cross University. The Rising Stars Scholarship program has been in place since way back in 1994. The program is an example of how Summerland, as part of the local community, can continue its commitment to providing real opportunities which will lead to the longer-term benefit of the community.
Our 2024 Rising Stars Scholarship recipient will be named in late March.
