$cholarship Money Galore
We cannot understate the amount of scholarship money that is available now. Over and over we keep hearing from local organizations that they are not receiving applications from TC students. It is imperative that you are reviewing the Scholarship list put forth by Mrs. Feldman (link), speaking to the financial aid/admissions/academic departments at the colleges you are being accepted to, and checking with your local organizations to find scholarship (and grant) money that is available to assist with your college aspirations. Opportunities are coming in every day, and online, so please check in with us and make sure you are keeping track of deadlines and application requirements so that you don’t miss out on any FREE money! Take a look at the Alfred Street Baptist Church Foundation scholarship that went live this week by clicking here and this local scholarship from Leak Street (link), both due on APRIL 15TH!
