Utility Line Scholarship

Norris Public Power District offers one $2,000 Utility Line – Electric Lineman Training Scholarship. The scholarship is awarded to a first year student who has been accepted into the Utility Line Program at Northeast Community College in Norfolk or Metropolitan Community College in Omaha.

Applicants must meet the following requirements:

  • Must be a U.S. Citizen
  • Graduated high school within the past two years
  • High school cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher
  • Parents or guardians must live within Norris Public Power District’s territory boundaries

In addition to meeting the application requirements, all scholarship finalists are interviewed by the Norris Public Power District Scholarship Committee prior to selecting a scholarship recipient.

Students who are considering a career as an electric lineman should apply for admission to either Northeast Community College or Metropolitan Community College as soon as possible as enrollment in this program is limited and based on the date of acceptance. Norris Public Power District will send scholarship funds directly to the institution the recipient is attending, and the funds will be credited towards tuition only.

Scholarship applications for the 2023 – 2024 year should be completed and returned to Vicky Jurgens, Norris Public Power District, 606 Irving Street, P. O. Box 399, Beatrice, NE 68310-0399, by January 6, 2023.
