Can I transfer this scholarship to a University after I finish at NTCC?
If you have completed two years in the W4C Program before graduating high school AND you have also completed your associate’s degree at NTCC, any remaining scholarship credits left on your account may be transferred to the university you are attending. Ex: In order to qualify, you would need to be enrolled in and complete the W4C Program after both your sophomore and junior year in high school. You must also complete your associate’s degree at NTCC and enroll in a university the following semester—all remaining credits will be transferred to your account at the university. Please see the Director of the W4C Program for a W4C University Transfer Application

How are the applicants for the program chosen?
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.

Is it possible to be fired or removed from the program?
Yes. Although you will be in a class and you will be learning a lot, this is not school. This is a job. Just like any job, you can be fired for many different reasons. These include, but are not limited to the following: lack of attendance, poor attitude, failure to follow instructions, causing problems, etc. However, the intent of this program is to teach you how to work so none of these would ever become issues.
