Institutional Scholarships
Each year Institutional Scholarships prove to be the
greatest source of scholarship money for MKHS seniors. Most Institutional
Scholarships are awarded at the time that a student is accepted to a college. Most
colleges publish information about the scholarships that they offer on their
website. I suggest that you go to the website of all the colleges you are
interested in and determine the GPA and test score requirements of the various
scholarships that they offer. Being aware of this information ahead of time can
certainly make a difference in the amount of scholarship money that you can
receive.
Periodically, the CAP Office receives scholarships
that require the schools’ nomination. These scholarships are usually very
limited in number and are extremely competitive. Most will require a high GPA,
with comparable SAT/ACT scores, dedicated community service and school
involvement in activities and/or sports. If you are interested in any of
these scholarships and wish to be nominated, scholarships,
please come by this office to discuss the nomination process. **We must receive your request for consideration
at least two weeks prior to the postmark deadline listed on the scholarship. (Example,
submit request to your advisor for Emory Scholars Nomination by October 24).
