Tommy Doyle, Lee County Supervisor of Elections, is currently accepting applications for the 2023 Florida Supervisors of Elections (FSE) Scholarship.

Applicants must be registered Florida voters, live in the state for at least the preceding two years, and be enrolled or accepted as a full-time student in a Florida university or college. Applicants must be either a Political Science, Public Administration, Business Administration, or Journalism/Mass Communication major. Additionally, students must have at least a “C” average or above for the previous year, have finished two years of junior college or undergraduate work, and demonstrate a financial need.

The deadline to submit completed applications for a scholarship is March 10, 2023. Applications are available online at https://www.lee.vote/Community-Education-Services/FSE-Scholarship.

Supervisor Doyle says he looks “forward to reviewing applications and interviewing students, and encourages all who are eligible to apply.”

Applications must be submitted to the elections office of the county in which the applicant is registered to vote. Each county will select one finalist to send to the FSE Scholarship Committee for consideration. The Committee will select four winners from the finalists submitted.
