Scholarships
Please look over the list of scholarships and stay on top of due dates! Scholarships are not listed in order of due dates. They are in the order that I receive them or become aware of them. So, make sure you look through the entire listing, as they are not in chronological order.
If you need letters of recommendation, please give the people you ask at least a week or two of notice. You must make us aware of any verification, nomination, or recommendation documents we need to complete. We are happy to help you if you give us the information and time we need.
Also, many scholarship applications require an essay. The English teachers and I are happy to review them and make suggestions. Once again, please give us at least a week to review your essay before it needs to be submitted.
You can click on any of the scholarships that need to be filled out online to link you directly to the application web site. All the rest MUST be turned in to me by the due date I have set. That gives me time to review and send them off. If you apply for any online or outside scholarships, please let me know. I may have to validate your application or verify information with a scholarship provider.
Check back often! I will be constantly updating the list as applications come in! REMEMBER-the more you apply for, the more you have a chance at getting! Good luck and please see me if you have any questions!
