Dollars for Scholars Recipients 2006
January 3, 2009 - 13:00 — hooveralumni
Each year applications for scholarships are made available in January and have to be returned to the counseling office by the first Friday in May. Each application is screened and the finalists are presented to the Dollars for Scholars review committee. Each student is interviewed, and depending on funding, the final group is chosen based on scholarship, personal needs and life goals. 80% of alumni dues goes to this program.
Each recipient was awarded a scholaship for $1000.00. This year marks the Dollars for Scholars program going past the $150,000 mark in awards given.
