Scholarship Tips and Reminders:

The Scholarship List is updated weekly (sometimes even daily!), so check back often!

• • It is up to each student to apply for scholarships.  

  • Request recommendations from teachers, counselors, and community members at least two weeks (preferably more) before you need the recommendation.

  • Ask the teacher or recommender to write a "generic" letter you can copy and use for multiple applications, then make copies!

  • You must request official transcripts from your Parchment account to be sent to universities, colleges, scholarship organizations, or professional companies.

  • Email your school counselor for a copy of your unofficial transcript to be sent to your D5 account.

  • Pay close attention to due dates; please do not wait until the last minute!

  • When considering class rank, be aware that the total number of seniors in the rank will go down significantly after early graduates leave in December.

  • Most of our local scholarships start coming in after Christmas break.

  • If you have an iPhone, an easy way to scan is to use the NOTES app. Start by creating a new note and use the camera icon to scan a document.

  • The spreadsheet below contains three separate tabs for Scholarships, College-Specific Scholarships, and Scholarship Websites.
