 Getting an education has never been more
important—or expensive. The RV Learning Center can
help! Scholarship money is available to deserving
sophomore, junior, or senior undergraduates majoring in business,
finance, economics, accounting, or other RV-related subjects. Dealers
are able to offer this opportunity to their
team specifically because of their employment in the RV
industry. Alert your employees to this opportunity by posting the
new full color poster at your dealership. Click
Here to download a 81/2" x 11" color poster (shown at
left). Dealer
principals, their family and dependents, are not eligible. Please
call the dealer services hotline, or e-mail info@rvda.org if you have
any questions.
Applicants must:
- Have a 2.8 or better cumulative grade
point average, and a 1050 minimum SAT score (1575 minimum on the 2400
point scale). A minimum ACT composite score of 22 is also
acceptable.
- Be a rising sophomore, junior, or senior
college undergraduate student.
- Complete a 500 word essay on their goals
and objectives for attending college.
- Submit a copy of their Free Application
for Student Aid (FAFSA) form which is available from guidance
counselors or for download at no charge from the U.S. Department of
Education at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
- Demonstrate the ability and willingness
to fund a portion of their educational expenses on their
own.
- Attend an accredited four-year college
or university as a condition of receiving the scholarship.
The scholarship program is possible due
to the generosity of the Newt and Joanne Kindlund Family. The
Kindlunds are the founders of Holiday RV Superstores—the first
publicly-traded RV dealership. The Kindlunds sold the company in
1999. Newt Kindlund remains an active participant in RV industry
affairs and currently serves on The RV Learning Center's Board of
Directors. The Kindlund Family has fully funded the
$270,000 scholarship endowment.

Center, send an e-mail to info@rvda.org, or fax to (703)

described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Contributions may be tax deductible as charitable donations.
