This is a competitive scholarship and is awarded based on a 50 point scoring system. An applicant receives 10 points for their transcript (regardless of grades), 10 points for a reference letter, and up to 30 points for an essay. The transcript and the reference letter points are automatic. You are awarded 20 points just for showing that you can follow instructions. The essay is the most important part. You can receive up to 30 points on the essay. Each essay is scored by three volunteer readers from the community. Scores are then tabulated and all applicants receive an award or regret letter by May 1st from the Work4College Program Director.
