Scholarships

We have notified the 2022 B.I.G. scholarship winners! We will announce the 9 winners soon. Thanks so much to all who applied, we wish you the best at Nicholls or Fletcher.

The deadline to apply was Saturday, April 30, 2022.

2022 Scholarship Program Description and Rules (Important: You must read this document before applying!)

Each year, Bayou Industrial Group awards scholarships to graduating high school seniors in the Bayou Region for enrollment at Nicholls State University and Fletcher Technical Community College.  The BIG Scholarship Fund is supported by contributions from members with annual dues, the BIG Seafood Social for Scholarships, and other scholarship fundraising activities that may be held throughout the year.

New in 2022: While the main focus of our scholarship program is still on graduating high school seniors, we will now also consider applications from non-traditional students residing in Lafourche, Terrebonne, Assumption, or St. Mary parishes.

New in 2022: While the main focus of our scholarship program is still on 2 and 4 year degree programs, we will now also consider applications for students pursuing industrial certifications and non-degree programs. Scholarship amounts for these programs will depend on program costs and other factors. We recognize the importance of these certifications to the employers in our region, and we proudly support students’ efforts in attaining them since it improves our local workforce.

Contact B.I.G.’s Executive Director Stacey Nichols at info@bayouindustrialgroup.com with any questions. Make sure to allow enough time for a response before the deadline.
