Local and Regional Scholarships
Local and regional scholarships are typically awarded based on student’s
application and résumé, the quality of community service,
the quality of a written essay, and possibly on face-to-face interviews
with scholarship committees. Keep in mind, excellent grades qualify
students for scholarships (meaning excellent grades make students eligible),
but actual winners of scholarships are usually based on the quality
of students’ community service, essays, and face-to-face interviews.
Apply to all local and regional scholarships you qualify for. You
don’t need straight “A’s” to win these awards;
numerous “B” average students receive significant local
and regional scholarships. Generally, these awards are easier
to win than national scholarships. |
