Brooklawn Caddies,
As you know, we offer the Brooklawn Caddie Scholarship every year to our best caddies who are going on to continue their education after high school. These scholarships can be as high as $5,000.
They are available to graduating high school seniors and young adults planning to attend and be a full-time student at an accredited 2 or 4-year college or university, vocational school, trade school, technical school or certificate program. This scholarship cannot be used for online courses or online degree/certificate programs. Part-time students are not eligible for this scholarship and should not apply. Applicants who have previously been awarded this scholarship are eligible to re-apply.
Applicants must have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.5 in order to apply and must have caddied successfully and regularly for at least 1 year. If you, or a family member, is a member of Brooklawn Country Club, you are not eligible to apply. Please see the instructions below.
