TILF is looking for students who are prepared for college, and the entrance tests and acceptance to colleges are indicators of how much thought and preparation a student has given to higher education. For the past several years statistics show that the numbers are fairly equal. Conference 1A through 5A schools garner just about the same number of scholarships. In Addition Financial need plays a role in the selections especially when everything else is comparable. The donors desire is to enable as many academically talented Texas students as possible to pursue a higher education.
Donors look upon their contributions as an investment in the future.
Seventy percent ranked in the top five of their graduating classes. TILF is proud to support the cream of the crop in Texas scholarship applicants. They do, but their chances may be lessened by the high credentials of students in the applicant pool. Boxes are provided at the State Meet Registration Center to hand-deliver your completed application to TILF instead of sending it through the mail. There is a place on the application to indicate how you placed in the contest.
