Since it's inception, the White Rose Scholarship Foundation, a program of the Imperial Court of the Rocky Mountain Empire, has awarded more than $166,000 to multiple deserving applicants in pursuits to further their college education. The White Rose Scholarship funds, which are obtained through fundraising efforts of the ICRME's membership as well as private donations, are presented annually to recipients during the White Rose Gala. Annual disbursements have averaged $15,000 over the last 11 years, and are given out in amounts ranging from $500 to $2,500.
Applications for the White Rose Scholarship are revised and made available each year in August. Download the application (see above) or email whiterosecressywest@denvercourt.org, to obtain the most current information.
For consideration, completed applications must be postmarked by January 15th and/or received no later than January 31st. An independent committee of civic, business, and educational leaders will review all submissions. If you are selected to receive a scholarship, your award will be disbursed directly to the accredited institution of your choice and will be allocated towards the purchase of text books and/or tuition.
