Honors Scholarship Information
Bennion Scholar Program
Sammuel Horne Bennion was a legendary Idaho Businessman who was absolutely committed to Idaho State University. Over his lifetime Sam Bennion donated millions of dollars to Idaho State University but as one of his final gifts, in the fall of 2005 Mr. Bennion gave nearly $700,000 to the Idaho State University Honors Program. He had one request, he wanted Idaho’s Best and Brightest to stay and gain their educations in Idaho.
In order for students to be considered for this award and the additional scholarship dollars there are two requirements:
- The student must apply to the Idaho State University Honors Program by February 15
- The student must apply to Idaho State University by February 15
Our Commitment to High Achieving Students
Idaho State University is committed to providing as much information as possible to high achieving students. We want students to be able to make fair comparisons across colleges. Therefore, once a student has completed her or his application to both Idaho State University and the Idaho State University Honors Program using the two separate appliation forms, that student will receive his/her scholarship award letter within two weeks.
