The Fred Taylor Memorial Scholarship is funded from a bequest by long time Rotarian Fred Taylor, who wished to see a scholarship fund established for students who were residents of Corowa when doing their HSC and now undertaking full time Tertiary studies.
The scholarship is open to any students undertaking full time tertiary study, irrespective of which year of their course they are completing. It is also open to those undertaking full time post graduate studies and TAFE courses.
