The Asher Matching Scholarship is supported by interest from a trust left to the college by
Pineville physician George M. Asher. The trust stipulates the income is to be used for
student aid.
AMOUNT:
The college will match up to $200.00 per semester for the first year (2 semesters) a
full-time student is enrolled (12 or more hours).
They will match up to $150.00 (9-11 hours),
$100.00 (6 – 8 hours) and
$50.00 (6-8 hours) per semester for the first year (2 semesters) a part-time student
is enrolled.
The matching contribution must come from the student’s home association, the
recommending church or one of the church organizations. (Special consideration
will be given to students whose home church is not able to participate.)
RECIPIENT:
The scholarship is available to a student enrolled for 12 or more hours and entering Clear
Creek for the first time. A former student returning after a four (4) year absence is also
eligible.
AWARDING THE GRANT:
A completed “Matching Scholarship” form from an associational officer, pastor, or church
organization leader is needed, preferably prior to enrollment. The form should note when
the body approved the matching gift, the amount pledged, and the anticipated payment
schedule. Clear Creek must receive the total amount by December 15th for the fall semester
and by April 15th for the spring semester.
The college portion will be applied to the student’s account upon receipt of the matching
portion from the donor.
Participants in the Matching Scholarship should make checks payable to Clear Creek
Baptist Bible College and send them to the Financial Aid Office with a notation including
the ASHER MATCHING/STUDENT’S NAME. Contributions will be credited to the
student’s account for tuition and other school expenses.
