Scholarships are often based upon academic achievement, extracurricular involvement, leadership and community service. As scholarship applications arrive in the guidance office, we post them and advertise them on the announcements. Also, ask your parents about scholarships that may be offered through their employer or civic organizations to which they belong. If you are considering the unique educational and financial opportunities available through the military academies, ROTC programs, or regular enlistment, start the process now. Academy and ROTC programs are very selective and involve a thorough screening process.
Early spring is a good time to start the ball rolling for the admissions process.
See me as soon as possible if you would like more information. Students can search for careers and colleges based on characteristics they choose. In the Career Center, we have access to NYS Department of Labor job listings for our area. Keep this in mind as you sign up for courses for next year. Missing them can mean not getting accepted at your preferred college or program of study.
