Site opens on December 2, 2013. This site has over a hundred different scholarships. They will ask you general information and then select which scholarships you qualify for. You will need to write a 2 page - max 1200 word personal statement which covers the following quesitons: What are your reasons for attending college?
Why did you choose your course of study? What career goals do you have? You should also include any other information that will demonstrate that you are a worthy schoplarship recipeint and describe any outstanding attributes and talents.
The application deadline is 2/20/2014. However if you can submit your application by 1/31/2014...the committee will double check your information and notify you if you have missing documents. So try to get your application by 1/31.
This year, the application is totally online...normally you would have to mail them your transcript, letters of reference etc, but this year you have to scan all your info and upload it to them.
They need your Student Aid Report from FAFSA, so do your FAFSA as soon as you can after January 1st. Use your parents 2012 tax information and then when they do their 2013 taxes, you can go back into FAFSA and correct the information.
Questions???See Mrs. Yamamoto in the Transition Center.
