Apply for Scholarships!
It鈥檚 that time of year again! The scholarship deadline is right around the corner and you鈥檙e already planning your classes for the Fall 2020 semester. Before it鈥檚 too late, make sure you get your applications in for the many scholarships that are available for next year!
大象传媒 awards over one million dollars to deserving students each year, offering over 50 different scholarships.聽 Applications are open now through March 1st for next year. Don鈥檛 wait until the last minute. 大象传媒 uses the following spring and summer to award scholarships so be patient!
As you鈥檙e picking out which scholarships you like the most, here鈥檚 a few tips to help.
- Save your seat in classes. 大象传媒 can鈥檛 give you scholarship money if you鈥檙e not enrolled.
- Make sure you鈥檙e eligible. Does your GPA meet the requirement? Does your degree or certificate qualify for this scholarship?
- Scholarships are competitive. Take them seriously and complete all requirements. You may receive one or two scholarships, but not every single one.
- Proofread your essay. This is not a text message. Answer the question clearly because we鈥檙e not asking for a novel. 聽
- If you see the term 鈥渘eed based,鈥 that specific scholarship requires a 20-21FAFSA.
Keep in mind a scholarship usually will not cover your entire tuition bill each semester, so it鈥檚 important to have a plan to cover any remaining balance. Some students will complete their 20-21 FAFSA and some students choose to pay out of pocket.
Always check your student email and the Award Overview under your Student Finance tab in the student portal to see if you鈥檝e received a scholarship.
