Every effort is made to maintain student confidentiality. Only those who work directly with Scholars have access to the database. In addition, only with the parent's permission is the name of a Scholar released to a college encouragement program. Scholars' information is never released for commercial purposes. Students who miss the application deadline can file an appeal.
Scholars have ongoing encouragement to stay in school, set goals and plan for their futures.
Through the Twenty-first Century Scholars Regional Support Programs, AmeriCorps Members and community volunteers provide a variety of college preparatory activities for Scholars, including college visits, tutoring, mentoring and community service projects. Parents of Scholars can participate in the Parents' Project. Information is designed to assist in academic preparation, career planning, college selection and financial planning. Students who transfer to a public or accredited private high school in Indiana will continue to qualify for the Twenty-first Century Scholarship. Students who transfer out of state may become ineligible if they graduate from a high school outside Indiana.
