The Cardinal Newman Society\u2019s Tenth Annual Scholarship Contest will award one lucky high school student $5,000 to attend a Newman Guide Recommended college, with the potential for up to $15,000 in additional aid from select colleges.<\/span><\/p>\n

The contest is open to high school juniors and seniors who follow these four simple steps:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sign up for The Cardinal Newman Society\u2019s\u00a0Recruit Me program<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Watch a\u00a07-minute video<\/a>\u00a0on the advantages of a Newman Guide Recommended college.<\/li>\n
  3. Review information about Newman Guide Recommended colleges through the\u00a0online Newman Guide<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  4. Submit your application<\/a>\u00a0with a 3-5 sentence statement explaining your interest in a faithful Catholic education and formation at a\u00a0Newman Guide Recommended college<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Applications are due by February 17, 2026. All the details about the contest can be found at this link:\u00a0https:\/\/newmansoc.org\/Scholarship<\/a><\/p>\n

    The winner will be randomly selected and will receive an initial $5,000 scholarship from The Cardinal Newman Society toward the cost of attending a Newman Guide Recommended college. However, most Newman Guide Recommended colleges have agreed to\u00a0supplement CNS\u2019s scholarship with additional $5,000 grants<\/a>\u00a0per year over the student\u2019s three subsequent years, provided the recipient continues to meet the University\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n

    Last year\u2019s scholarship winner, Teresa White, said The Newman Guide really “simplified” her college search. \u201cThey did the research and compiled data, which helped me choose to apply to the right universities. Attending an authentically Catholic college is the best investment I can make since it will prepare me for a career while deepening my faith,” she said.<\/p>\n

    White is just finishing her first semester at the University of Mary in Bismarck, N.D.<\/p>\n

    “Time is flying by and my first semester at University of Mary is going great!” said White. “My classes are very interesting, and I am constantly meeting amazing people! There have been very fun events throughout the semester, and some of my favorite times have been going to hockey games, listening to the Cappella choir at Sunday night Mass, and going to the brand-new running club.”<\/p>\n
