Heidi and I are excited to announce that our HCW college scholarship is now open for application! Last year, we awarded a total of $1100 in scholarship money to Hotcouponworld members. We're going to be out to raise some funds again and help a few members with tuition/books.
Here's the scholarship criteria:
* You must have joined Hotcouponworld on or before January 1st 2009 and be an active member in good standing:
- Active member means any combination of the following: you've been posting, have had good trades (Itrader ratings if you are a trader), have some positve reps, show that you help along newbies, and uphold HCW rules.
* Enrolled in an accredited program that would eligible for federal funds (so some fly by night thing won't work - the program has to have a FAFSA code to qualify as a legit program. A letter from the program stating that the member is enrolled there will be needed. You can be working towards any level of degree.
* Letter to us about why you want to go back to school. There's no word count required, but being concise is always helpful.
* Academically in good standing with your program if you're already enrolled.
* Financial need - although this won't be need based, we will take it into condsideration.
* A letter of reference from someone in their outside community with their contact information.
* Two HCWers (at lease one mod) to vouch for them.
Deadline to apply is Sept. 1st. (postmarked). Awarded funds will be paid directly to the school where the applicant is enrolled.
If you're going to apply, you can send your materials to me via mail or email. Let me know and I can get you the information.
Not enrolled in a program yet?
Here's some links to look at (which support the HHH fund) where you can get some information about programs. Now's the perfect time to think about going back to school...it's a life changing course of action. Take it from someone who's been in school for what seems like forever...nothing makes you feel more accomplished than when they call your name to hand you your diploma. If you aren't currently enrolled somewhere, there's still time to learn more about it.
