Metro Credit Union Announces 2023 Scholarship Recipients

We’re excited to announce that 19 students have been selected as 2023 Metro Scholarship recipients to further their education during the 2023-2024 academic year!
Each year, Metro provides financial support to local high school seniors who meet eligibility requirements. To apply for a scholarship, students must be Metro Credit Union members or have a parent or guardian who is a member, have a minimum grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, and plan to enroll in an accredited undergraduate or vocational-technical program in the upcoming school year. Selected scholarship recipients receive $1,000 to be used toward their tuition and education expenses.
Nineteen Metro Scholarship recipients were selected this year based on academic record, demonstrated leadership, work experience, a statement of educational and career goals and objectives, unusual personal or family circumstances, and an online recommendation. The 2023 recipients include:

Emily Bass, Reading
Keegan Boyden, Tewksbury
Dhalia Christmas, Chelsea
Lily Deal, Medford
Jack Doyle, Salem

Additionally, Metro awarded scholarship money to local students through the following initiatives:
- Peabody Veterans Memorial High School – graduating seniors employed at Metro’s Peabody branch during the 2022-2023 academic year were each awarded $500 to contribute toward their education.
- Lynn Hispanic Scholarship Fund – Metro contributed toward this fund designed to provide annual scholarships to graduating high school students in Lynn who are of Latino and/or Hispanic ancestry.
- Cooperative Credit Union Association (CCUA) Scholarship Program – Metro member Johanna Castillo Mejia was selected as the CCUA recipient for the Metro-Boston Chapter. She has received $1,500 to use toward her education next year.
We’re proud of this year’s scholarship recipients and wish them well as they head off to many great colleges in the fall, including Boston University, Drew University, Mount Holyoke College, Northeastern University, St. Anselm College, Union College, University of Massachusetts – Amherst, University of San Diego, University of Wisconsin – Madison, Wesleyan University, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
