  • Each program has a detailed guide related to the process for applying for a deferment and leave of Absence.  Students and parents are welcome to call for further clarification and assistance.
  • The awards amounts are determined on an annual basis and are subject to legislative funding and the total number of qualified participants. Therefore, award amounts may be reduced, may vary from year to year, and are dependent on when the recipient is enrolled in college. Funding levels beyond Spring of 2013 are unknown and the award amounts will be determined in April of each year. Award information for each scholarship can be found on the programs respective web page.

These scholarships may continue to be refined and altered on an annual basis as result of legislation.
