Barnstable High School Class of 2021 February Scholarship Listings

S O M E G E N ERAL GUIDELINES FOR APPLYING TO SCHOLARSHIPS :

The following Scholarships are available to Barnstable High School Students ONLY!

The application form is the only contact you have with the Scholarship Committee, so make it an impressive one!

1. You will need to download the PDF Scholarship Application located on the Barnstable High School/ Student Support Website. Once on the Student Support website, on the left-hand side of the page, click on college and career planning, and then click on scholarships. It will bring you to the scholarship page – The application should be toward the bottom of the page. SAVE this to your computer/desktop before filling out any information. Once the application is filled out, rename it, and save it as a PDF – this way you can go back in and update, or make changes at any time. You will need to print out the completed application for most of the BHS Scholarships in this bulletin. Check to be sure that the donor's criteria match your qualifications. 2. Supply all additional pieces of information requested: (transcript, letter of recommendation is required for most applications) financial aid form, etc. Always hand your scholarship applications in complete with all materials requested. Incomplete applications may not be considered by donors. 3. Spend extra time in developing your personal statement about why you’re applying for a scholarship. The scholarship committees read these carefully and, in many cases, this is the major factor in their decision. Make the statement as clear, direct and concise as possible. Reasons such as other siblings in college, single parent expenses, medical or living expenses, etc. can be given. 4. Remember scholarship application packets are a reflection of who you are, make them neat, complete and yes this is the time to brag about yourself. Sometimes telling something interesting or different about you make you stand out next to another application. Think outside the box! 5. Should you receive a scholarship, a thank you letter expressing your appreciation should always be sent to the granting organization as soon as possible. I can supply you with contact information. If you are unsure of the scholarship award details, you may want to contact the donor as well, to find out when the scholarship will be issued (after 1st semester, with proof of grades, upon receipt of first tuition bill, etc.) and to who it will be granted (the college/university, or directly to you). Again, I can supply you with contact information. 6. There are no guarantees that students will receive the scholarship money they feel they need. You are advised to have discussions with your parents about projected funds for college, so that you will be aware of monies available from the family, should adequate financial aid not be forthcoming.

*Please be sure that all the information you provide on your application is accurate. Please be aware that donors may choose to take back awarded scholarships if they find your information invalid.
