The Iowa City Golf Association Scholarship Program was established in 2008 for high school student-athletes who have a passion for golf. The purpose of this scholarship is to assist Johnson County students in furthering their education.

The Iowa City Golf Association (ICGA) administers and maintains the ICGA Scholarship Program. Each recipient receives a one-time, non-renewable $2,000 scholarship.  The ICGA will make the payment directly to the recipient’s educational institution.

The ICGA Scholarship Selection Committee accepts applications and determines the recipients based on specific criteria, including scholars' extra-curricular activities in school and community, at least a 2.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale, acceptance at an accredited higher education institution, and a love of the game of golf.

Terms of scholarship

Scholars must have been a member of their high school golf team.

Scholars must submit with their application a summary of accomplishments in activities in both school and the community. They must also submit a short essay (200-250 words) on what golf has taught them. 

Study or training must be undertaken at an accredited higher education institution.

Each scholar is responsible for applying directly to an institution and gaining admission. A college acceptance letter may be required if you are chosen as a scholarship winner.

Scholars may receive additional funding from other sources during the scholarship period, but the ICGA will not duplicate funds provided by these sources.

Depending on Iowa tax laws, the scholarships may be partially or fully taxable. It is the scholar’s responsibility to investigate tax regulations for scholarship funding.

Applications can be submitted until near the end of April each year.  Details are above.
