ParkesBurg Post Ledger - News - 02/10/2005 - Hershey announces PHEAA scholarships - FOR PENNSYLVANIA RESIDENTS: "The program is funded by PHEAA and comes at no cost to local taxpayers. NETS is divided into two fields: The SciTech Scholarship and the Technology Scholarship. Those receiving either scholarship must agree to work full-time in Pennsylvania for one year for each year the scholarship is received. Failure to comply with these rules will convert the scholarships to loans that must be repaid with interest.
SciTech Scholarships provide up to $3,000 per academic year to residents enrolled full time in approved science or baccalaureate degree programs for a maximum of three years to five years. Qualified students must be Pennsylvania residents and at least a sophomore in college with a 3.0 grade-point average at the time of application. All grade averages must remain at or above 3.0 in order to maintain scholarship funding.

Students seeking additional information about the NETS programs can call 1-800-692-7392, or visit PHEAA's Internet site at www.pheaa.org."
