Tell a Student: Scholarship Deadline is Approaching

Know a great student who could use a little help paying for their classes? Now’s a good time to give them one last piece of “homework” to do over Spring Break: Filling out a Clark College Foundation Scholarship application.

Each year, Clark College Foundation gives our students hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarship aid. Students don’t necessarily need to be straight-A students to qualify for scholarships: Many are designed for students who are specializing in a particular field, or who come from a particular background. The deadline for Foundation scholarship applications for the 2014-15 academic year is April 16. Students can access the application form online, but it’s important to let them know that it will take time to complete–they’ll need time to polish their application and gather the requisite letters of recommendation.
