I completed a semester -- now what?

Upon successful completion of your first semester of college or technical school, students must submit their college transcript to Northwood School, along with the Scholarship Funds Request Form, in order to receive the first half of scholarship funds. Students must do the same at the end of second semester. Transcripts must include the student name and student ID number.

The Link Scholarships may be awarded for 2 or 4 years, depending on which one you were selected for. Link Scholarship recipients MUST have a 3.0 cumulative GPA and be a full-time student (earning 12 credits or more per semester). Transcripts must be submitted at the end of each semester for the duration of the scholarship.
All other scholarships are for the first year of post-secondary education. You must be enrolled as a full-time student (earning 12 credits or more per semester). Scholarship funds will be distributed in 2 installments - one at the end of first semester, and another at the end of second semester.

The transcript and the request form may be mailed to the school, or emailed to:
natasha_kildow@northwoodk12wi.com or tammie_denninger@northwoodk12wi.com

Scholarship Deferment:

We understand life happens and it doesn't always go the way we have planned.
If, for some reason, you do not meet the semester requirements for your scholarship awards, please fill out the Request for Scholarship Deferment form and submit a copy of your transcript by email or mail.

This process will place your scholarship funds on hold for up to two semesters.
