Buntrock Scholarship

The Buntrock Scholarship application requires two steps. This form is the first step of the process. Please be sure to include the name and email address of the senior pastor or youth pastor (or, for congregations with pastoral vacancies, the council president or other elected leader) who will provide your recommendation on your behalf. For the second step in this process, we will email a recommendation form to the person you identify below.

The application is currently only open to 2025 high school graduates entering college for the first time in Fall 2025.

(Please note: students must be admitted to Augustana before their Buntrock Scholarship application will be reviewed. If you have not already done so, apply to Augustana, in addition to completing this Buntrock Scholarship application.)
