Scholarships

We're all about building meaningful relationships with our applicants and ensuring that they share our values and mission. To make the process fun and easy, we've designed a short and sweet 10-question multiple choice quiz - no lengthy essays required! The quiz focuses on two areas:

1. About Synergy and Our Mission Statement
2. The 7 Co-operative Principles

By completing this quiz, you'll demonstrate your understanding of Synergy Credit Union's values and how they align with your own.

Don't worry if you're not already familiar with Synergy's mission or the 7 Co-operative Principles – the information you need to answer the questions correctly is provided in the links above. We believe that understanding these concepts is important for future leaders in our community, and we're excited to see how you'll do!
