Eastpointe Scholarship

The Local & Global Outreach Ministry Scholarship exists to encourage and assist members at Eastpointe to pursue* Christian education** at one of our many Restoration Movement colleges and universities. Scroll to the end of this page for a list of eligible schools.

Eastpointe members may apply for scholarship funds by downloading the Scholarship Fund Application.

This application covers the purpose and goals of the student's education and the need for assistance. Applications for fall scholarship awards must be received by June 30; applications for spring scholarships must be received by November 30.

All applications will be prayerfully reviewed and promptly answered by the Outreach Team within no more than 5 weeks from the date in which the application was due. In cases of rejection, the chairman of the Elders and the Lead Pastor will be asked to review the reasons before informing the applicant.

Awarded scholarships will be given directly to the student to be used at the student's own discretion. The Outreach Team will trust that the student will use the scholarship award based on their stated intended purpose as documented in that student’s scholarship application.

Limit of one scholarship per year. Should a student at any point in time quit pursuing the degree for which the scholarship award was originally granted, that student will not be expected to repay the scholarship funds received to that date.

In order to be eligible for consecutive scholarship gifts, students must maintain a GPA of no less than 2.5. Students who apply for consecutive scholarships may be asked to provide a copy of their previous quarter’s/semester’s report card to prove that the proper GPA was obtained. If at any point during their academic career, should a student’s GPA drop below 2.5, the student may not reapply for another scholarship gift until they provide documentation proving that GPA has been raised to a 2.5 or above. ***

* pursue – Scholarships are available only for students actively seeking an Associate's, Bachelor’s, Master’s or Ph.D degree. Scholarships do not apply to individuals taking single classes for personal or professional development, etc.

** Christian education – defined as any degree offered at the Christian college/university of the student's choosing and is not limited only to Christian leadership degrees.

*** In situations of extenuating circumstances, the Scholarship Committee may choose to waive the 2.5 GPA requirement to allow a student to maintain scholarship eligibility.
