Scholarship Bulletin for September/October 2012


Scholarship Bulletin

September/October  2012


The pain of applying for scholarships will never exceed the pain of paying for student loans.
Scholarship applications are located in the Counseling Center or online at www.suhicounseling.com. Scholarships are sorted by the month they are due, and are displayed on the scholarship bulletin located in the Counseling Center. See the Scholarship Counselor if you have questions or need help with an application. Give yourself plenty of time to complete the application process. Make your best effort to not wait until the last minute to get letters of recommendation, transcripts, and essays together. Transcripts must be requested two days in advance. Find more scholarships by researching the scholarship search engines located after the list of scholarships on each bulletin.
Note: many scholarships will come through the Counseling Center as “last minute” status; my apologies for the time constraint
Note: Because scholarships come in at different times, they are not displayed according to “deadline date”. Be sure to carefully view all deadline dates.
