Marian Garrett Student Scholarship
SCAEOP presents an annual scholarship of $1000 to a deserving high school student planning to pursue a college degree in the business field. We have helped with the educational process of many South Carolina college bound students. The rising cost of tuition at many of our colleges places a hardship on many families. We strive each year to help ease the economic burden for a deserving student.
Congratulations to our 2018 Student Scholarship Recipients

Megan Knight
Megan Knight grew up in Des Moines, Iowa but found her home after moving to Blythewood, South Carolina in 2010. As a child, she had a knack for helping others and would sometimes get in trouble for trying to help at the wrong times. Upon entering high school, however, Megan took this habit and molded it into a skill that would mark her fondly in the eyes teachers and peers alike. Often labeled as happy-go-lucky and infamously supportive, Megan works to spread positivity in every person she meets. Stemming from her love of helping is her love of leadership, which has instilled in her a passion for business and an aspiration to build her own event planning company.
