As scholarship deadlines are starting to approach, Grade 12 students need to start getting organized.
I always encourage students to start a folder, either electronically or on paper to keep organized with all of their pending scholarships. Organize them by deadline and start applying. Line up teachers, community members or counsellors to write reference letters… be prepared with everything.
An article by Rob Taylor with ScholarshipsCanada.com* is a good resource for getting prepared. Read it here.
Here are some scholarships that grade 12’s should be paying attention to right now:
- Remax – this one is done online
- Prominent Homes – the application is available from Ms. Morck. See her ASAP.
*Along with Scholarship Canada you can also check out the Government of Alberta ALIS site for more available scholarships.
