Check out the list here (updated regularly)
Want to help build a pipeline for our students to be competitive?
Invite us into your freshman or sophomore class! (Most of these awards require more than a year of prep and planning)
Offer to be a mentor in your field! (Limited time commitment unless the student progresses to the final stage)
Offer to sit on a mock interview committee for preparing juniors/seniors for the major award interviews
Offer to read over an application or essay draft/practice essay (where applicable--some of the awards prohibit our involvement at the application stage)
Mentioning the names of these scholarships to your students (and that they exist!) helps to normalize applying for competitive awards and opportunities
More detailed resource pages and application advice will roll out in the coming year... stay tuned!
