Abbott Scholarship Trust
The Abbott Scholarship Trust awards scholarships, annually, to graduating seniors and currently enrolled college students who are residents of Gloucester, Essex or Rockport.
About the Abbott Scholarship Trust: The Abbott Scholarship Trust was established by the Will of James N. Abbott, Jr., "to help underwrite students from Gloucester, Rockport, and Essex to attend full-time accredited institutions of higher learning subsequent to their graduation from high school." The Will provides that "Scholarship recipients shall be bona fide residents domiciled in Gloucester, Rockport and Essex", possessing, in addition to strong academic and moral qualifications, a firm commitment to the area of Cape Ann demonstrated insofar as possible by expressed intention and willingness to reside in the area after completion of their studies, practicing their professions, skills, business and talents within this community, thus returning in some measure the benefits conferred upon them by this "Trust."
The 2026 Abbott Scholarship application period is closed. When available, the winners will be posted here.
