Few academic experiences match the intellectual and practical value of receiving a scholarship. The financial benefits speak for themselves. Each year, CSI awards thousands of dollars in scholarships to all kinds of students. However, in addition to the financial worth, comes the acknowledgment of a job well done, the satisfaction of knowing that someone out there is rewarding you for working hard and earning good grades. Needless to say, any resume is brightened by the presence of a scholarship award as well.
Students can make up their own minds about the type of scholarship they like best.
Financial aid is not necessarily a requirement, though some scholarships do require financial need. Students may apply for as many scholarships as they are eligible for. The Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs publishes the Scholarship Application every November. Generally, scholarship applications have an early February deadline for scholarships offered the following September.
