SENIOR INFO

 

Seniors!!!  We’ve had lots of questions about scholarships – where to find them, how to apply, and what am I eligible for.  Lucky for you the Counseling Office website gives you TONS of information answering those questions.  Check out the scholarship page and try one of the scholarship search websites, like TSAC scholarships, or College-Scholarships.com – you’ll find numerous scholarships that might be the right one for you!  We’ve recently added new links to scholarships for beauty school, pursuing a heavy-machinery themed program, even scholarships that have no GPA, testing or essay requirements – just a survey to complete.  And of course, we have the East Tennessee Foundation Scholarships which are specifically for students in our part of the state.  Go to the website or stop by the Counseling Office to get more information.  A. O’Rourke
