Scholarships
are awarded on the basis of a student's academic achievement. They are
designed to recognize, encourage and assist men and women who
demonstrate leadership potential in a chosen field of study. Financial
need generally is not a factor in making these awards, although the
amount of the award assigned to each winner will vary with financial
circumstances of the recipient.
Sometimes finding scholarships can be like finding a
needle in a haystack. Here are several websites that may
be helpful in your search for additional funds.
Funds for these awards are made available through endowments
contributed by concerned individuals and organizations.
