Last year, Continuing Education awarded more than $22,000 in scholarships to 98 deserving students. Many scholarship options are available again this year, and students are encouraged to apply.
Scholarships are for students in good standing with excellent attendance, and each has different requirements. Students who are awarded scholarships will be recognized during the Annual Scholarship Awards Event at the Educational Cultural Complex on May 23, 2012.
In some cases, one application will serve for multiple scholarships, but in other instances, students must submit separate applications. See more below. Students should submit applications as early as possible so instructors will have time to complete attendance/progress information as part of the application and write a letter of recommendation (if required). Applications must be submitted by the deadline April 12, 2012 at 6:30 p.m.
