How Scholarships Work.. Institutional Scholarships- scholarships given by a college because of your ACT, GPA, Leadership or special talent. Departmental Scholarships-usually declare a major and specific criteria. Every school has a different process and deadline. State and National Scholarships-vary in size, who can apply, and criteria. best-sites-to-look-for-scholarships/ best-sites-to-look-for-scholarships/

Local Scholarship Clinton High School Guidance Web Site

Local Form Guidelines We would like to keep apps at 2 pages. Type info above the line. Make sure you type the application. Be sure to include your school information especially the cost. (You can look it up on web.) Personal Statement can be cut and pasted in, please do not include on separate sheet of paper. Please list the school and community activities in designated area. Really prefer that resumes are not attached. Be sure to save the document so that you can go back and edit it. Once completed turn in a clean copy to the Guidance office. What’s next??? Process

Tips for the Scholarship Process Make a file folder for scholarships. Include the following items in your folder: resume, transcripts, 2 copies of Apps, family military papers. Save all essay because you can tweak and reuse them. Writing a good scholarship essay ppt. ed to you. Plan a weekly time 2 nd semester to work on scholarships.

Final Thoughts Don’t be afraid to work…. Be good to Mrs. Mifflin…. Best night of the year is Senior Awards night….
