The Iowa Association of Municipal Utilities was able to offer two scholarship programs this year – a scholarship program for students pursuing a post-secondary program with a utility focus and a general scholarship program for children or grandchildren of IAMU member employees.

Utility-Focused Scholarships are $2000. Preference is given to those applicants entering a utility related career with a special preference to applicants entering utility related trades programs leading to careers in those difficult to fill utility careers such as, electric line worker, water treatment or distribution operator, or operator qualified natural gas positions.

To eligible for the Utility Scholarship the candidates must: 
  • Live in a residence that is a verified customer of an IAMU member or attend a high school that is a verified customer of an IAMU member.
  • Be a 2023 graduating high school senior or have previously graduated from high school.
  • Be attending a post high school education program located in Iowa in the fall of 2023.
For the $500 General Scholarship, candidates must:
  • Attend college/technical school within the state of Iowa.
  • Have a parent/grandparent/legal guardian who is an employee of an IAMU-verified member.
  • Have a 3.0 minimum GPA.
