Rosalie Stevens Student Scholarship Award

OCRA believes in promoting the court reporting profession. In an effort to encourage students who are currently pursuing their court reporting degree, in 1997 OCRA established the OCRA student scholarship award. We feel this award represents an incentive toward scholastic achievement and future professional development. 

In 2004, the OCRA Student Scholarship award was renamed in honor of Rosalie Stevens. Rosalie served as a president to both OCRA and the National Court Reporters Association. Her enthusiasm and dedication to the profession was commendable and served as a shining example to future generations of court reporters. 

Each year, OCRA accepts scholarship applications from student members and presents the $500 scholarship award at our annual conference.
