The Iona Berry Memorial Scholarship Application period is from January 1, 2024 until March 31, 2024.

The Iona Berry Memorial Scholarship was established in 2003, as a way to assist our members who want to further their education. The independent Scholarship Committee can award three $1,000 scholarships, and four $500 scholarships per year. These student members demonstrate academic excellence, citizenship, community service and credit union participation.

Applicants must have their own Nova CU account! If you do not have your own account, join online now or visit any branch. You may not use your parents' account number as your member number.

You can drop off your application at any branch, send it in the mail or you may submit your signed application, photo and other items via email to: avanbeek@novacu.com If mailing, please write: Scholarship Application in the Subject line with your Name — for example: Terry Crews' Scholarship Application.

Our members may apply for the Carolinas Credit Union Foundation scholarships. In order to qualify and apply, you must be a member of a North or South Carolina credit union. The scholarship applications are available to all credit unions in these states around the first of November of each year. Interested applicants may visit the Carolinas Credit Union Foundation application page to create an online account to apply for the scholarship.

The scholarship application cycle begins in October of each year for scholarships awarded the following year. Participating credit unions must return completed applications to the Carolinas Credit Union Foundation by February of the year following the scholarship cycle beginning in November of the previous year.
