GSC Continues Relationship with Raymond James
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – The Gulf South Conference and long-term partner Raymond James have continued their corporate relationship.
A key component to this relationship is Raymond James’ continued support for the GSC Degree Completion Program. Using initial funds from the NCAA Foundation for the Future grant, the GSC awards financial assistance to former GSC student-athletes to complete their undergraduate studies. Two awards of up to $3000 per semester are available to one female and one male applicant.
The GSC Degree Completion Program stems from the second pillar of the GSC Strategic Plan: Compete, Graduate, Impact.
