What is the Gramann Reporting, Ltd. Scholarship Program?
This scholarship program was established to give financial aid each year in the amount of $1000 to two court reporting students for the specific purpose of assisting and encouraging the completion of this difficult yet rewarding course of study.

How is selection of recipients made?
