Who may apply for a Scholarship?

 

Dollars for Scholars believes that any sincere and determined person should have the opportunity to continue his or her education after graduation. Scholarships can be one year, four-year, or vocation and technical colleges. Children and adults may be eligible. Scholarships are awarded at a ceremony prior to commencement and are payable after students have submitted an official transcript of their first quarter/semester grades to the Mora High School counselor's office.

 

How are local Scholarships awarded?

 

By completing a common application form, students become eligible for several local awards. Applications are scored anonymously by trained volunteers serving on an Awards Committee. Applicants receive points for a variety of qualities, including work experience, school and community activities, and academic record. In this way, the selection process is objective and nondiscriminatory, making scholarships available to a wide range of deserving students planning to attend an accredited post-secondary institution.

Applications are available at the Mora High School office.
