Acknowledgement
I know I will need to complete a thank you letter if
I am awarded any DONOR SCHOLARSHIP and will be notified in October by the
Department of Institutional Advancement as to who and where to send it to.
I understand that I am
a returning student and that if I meet the requirements of the General
Donor Scholarship, I will be
automatically considered for an award.
However, I meet at
least one of the Specific Award Criteria and
would like to complete the 2013-2014 DONOR SCHOLARSHIP
SUPPLEMENTAL FORM.
Each year
donor scholarships are awarded to deserving students. Because of
recent economic factors, more students have greater financial need. We in the
Office of Financial Aid want to ensure that we are helping those students who
have need as well and recognizing their merit with these scholarships.
These scholarships are made possible
by the generosity of various individuals, clubs, organizations, industries
and foundations. These privately funded scholarships range from $200
to $3,000 per year and are awarded to eligible returning students based on
specifications pre-determined by the individual donors.
- Distinguished Scholarships
- General Scholarships
- Pending Scholarships (Not yet endowed)
These scholarships make a difference
to our students. Read how.
