Scholarships
We are proud to present the Central Penn Bank & Trust Scholarship Program. The program awards one (1) recipient from each school a scholarship of up to $1,000 per year (with a maximum of $4,000 over 4 years) to a graduating senior attending a participating school. Participating schools include Mifflinburg Area High School, Selinsgrove Area High School, Lewisburg Area High School, Milton Area High School, and Shikellamy Area High School.
Program Guidelines & Priorities:
Seniors with a record of volunteerism in the community in non-school sponsored activities and participation in extracurricular school activities.
Applicants must have a minimum GPA of 2.8 and plan to attend a 2 or 4 year accredited college as a full-time student for a business related degree.
* Scholarship funds will be distributed in December 2026 or January 2027 for the second semester of the student’s first year directly to the college. It will be the student’s responsibility to submit to the bank a copy of their fall semester transcript, student ID number and college information on a yearly basis.

* Applications are due to the bank by April 24, 2026. Late applications will not be accepted or considered.
