The Massachusetts AFL-CIO Scholarships are available to all high school seniors living in Massachusetts. Students with union affiliation will be eligible for both the Mass AFL-CIO scholarships as well as the union scholarships offered by the union that the student is affiliated with.

Please view and download our scholarship brochure, study guide and application at www.massaflcio.org for a complete list of union scholarships and their criteria.

Students that live out of state and come from a union affiliation must get permission from their high school guidance department to have an exam sent for them.  The contact from the high school should then contact Meghann Connolly at 781-324-8230 x28 for further instructions.
