The Greater Northeast Motorcoach Association (GNEMA) Scholarships will be awarded to full-time employees, or the dependent children of full-time employees of GNEMA Operator Member companies. Also eligible are the employees of GNEMA Allied Members companies, or the dependent children of the Allied Member companies. The award will go to whom best meet the requirements set forth by the Scholarship Committee. Scholarship awards are limited to cover tuition and fees. Two annual scholarships will be awarded; one for GNEMA Operator Members and one for GNEMA Allied Members.


The Scholarship Committee will be authorized to review the applications blindly, i.e. without names, and make the selections.
