About
The Returned Missionary Scholarship (RMS) is for recently returned missionaries who want to apply the experiences, skills, and habits they’ve developed in the next phase of their lives.
Purpose
The RMS goal is to assist recipients with education funding to help them move forward with their life’s plan enabling them to succeed in their education, career, or other righteous pursuit so they can become self-reliant and help fill a local need.
