Grand Lodge of Iowa Masonic Scholarships

Scholarship Value: $1,000

Awards Available: 60

Award Deadline: Feb 1, 2025


The Grand Lodge of Iowa, A.F. & A.M., located at 813 First Avenue SE, Cedar Rapids, will be awarding twenty-five scholarships (15 - $5000 scholarships and 10- $2500 scholarships) to high school seniors who will graduate during the 2024-2025 academic year from a public high school within the state of Iowa.

These scholarships are designed to assist graduating seniors in pursuing a post-secondary education in any state at an accredited institution which provides either a two-year or a four-year degree. The scholarships may be used for any bona fide school related expense such as tuition, fees, and books.

Applicants are not required to have a Masonic connection, however, please indicate in your personal resume if you do have a Masonic connection. Race, creed, religion, color, sex, or national origin have no bearing in the selection process. Recipients are selected after completing a comprehensive written application and an in-depth personal interview.

A broad-based criterion is used in the selection process. The principal criterion is the applicant’s ability to demonstrate service in their school and community with special emphasis on leadership roles in these areas. The Grand Lodge of Iowa is looking for those students who exhibit the greatest potential to be not only of service to their communities following the completion of their education but also future leaders in these communities. An applicant’s academic record, communication skills, need for financial assistance and the recommendation/evaluation of the applicant by a school official will all be considered by the selection committee. The organization, appearance, and completeness of the application are also factors considered by the selection committee.

From all the applications received, the Scholarship Selection Committee will select several finalists who will be asked to appear before the committee for a personal interview. These interviews will be conducted via Zoom Video Conferencing in late March. Upon completion of the interviews, the committee will then select those who will receive scholarships.

Public high school seniors who feel they meet the criteria for eligibility and selection are invited to submit applications. Application information may be obtained through the guidance department of any public high school and must be received via email by the Grand Lodge Office no later than February 1, 2025, to be considered by the committee.
