Scholarship Information
Night
for the Class of 2012
Thursday, November 3, 2011
Meanwhile, students are
advised to take BOTH the SAT & ACT College Testing Programs in their
Junior or Senior Years.)
Doors Open 5:30 p.m. for Refreshments and Guest Check-In
Session A – 6:00 pm to 7:15 pm • Session B – 7:30 pm to 8:45 pm
We are offering two sessions so that seniors may bring one
or both parents. Please complete and return by October 18 the postcard that was
mailed to your home by your school. It is absolutely imperative that students
reserve space in either Session A or Session B. The first 100 attendees in
either session will be emailed a confirmation.
All seniors attending high school in Tipton County are invited to Scholarship
Information Night at the Tipton County Foundation’s Miller Memorial Auditorium,
located at 1020 W. Jefferson Street (adjoining the Pioneer Hi-Bred International
campus).
Scholarship and Financial Aid representatives will give
brief presentations about ALL local scholarships
offered through the schools, the Dollars for Scholars programs, and the Tipton
County Foundation. This will be followed by time for
questions and answers -- and door prizes.
This event is sponsored in part by the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship
Program. The LECSP provides
scholarships for full tuition, required fees, plus an allocation of $800.00 for
required books and equipment for four years of full-time undergraduate study
leading to a bachelor’s degree at any NCACS-accredited public or private college
or university in Indiana.
In addition, information
will be provided about the E.W. Kelley Scholarship, awarded to Tipton
County graduates for four years’ tuition at
Indiana University Kokomo.
Although the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship has a
prestigious and demanding nomination process, students should remember that the
only way to assure that you will NOT receive this (or any) scholarship is if you
fail to apply! Do not assume that your grades are too low, your activities
too few, or your leadership too lame to qualify.
Scores from the SAT and ACT are REQUIRED in order to apply for
the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship.
No two schools calculate grade point average in exactly the same way. For a more
complete picture of past academic performance and likely success in college,
scores from BOTH the SAT and the ACT are REQUIRED in
order for an applicant to be considered for the LECS, because they predict
different sets of performance factors. Please contact the Tipton County
Foundation if this presents any hardships.
