USD #273 Endowment Association Scholarships Available
The USD #273 Endowment Association awards somewhere in the vicinity of $35,000 in scholarships each year to just our Beloit High School graduates.
Not everyone who applies will earn a scholarship, but I encourage ALL of you to take advantage of this opportunity; this is the one scholarship application you should NOT overlook this year.
Read through the attached INFORMATION; there is a letter explaining the process, along with the scholarship guidelines. The application itself is all submitted electronically. The link to apply is HERE.
Your name should NOT be on any documents other than your cover letter. You cannot have any reference to your name on a resumé, in essays, or anywhere else. Last year they had lots of names removed from resumés, but not email addresses, so be very careful. If you work for your family farm or a family business, change the name on your resumé to “Family Farm” or something that pertains to the business without having your last name in the business.
It is okay if it is on your transcript, however, and you will need to get an electronic copy of your 7 semester transcript from me when you are ready to upload it. If you write any essays for some of the scholarships, you will want to put the name of the scholarship in the title of your document.
As a reminder, do not use AI on a scholarship essay.
Deadline: NO LATER THAN 5:00 P.M. APRIL 7, 2025
