Hocking students planning to pursue a degree at a four-year school can now be nominated for the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Undergraduate Transfer Scholarship.
The Undergraduate Transfer Scholarship Program enables students at a two-year institution with exceptional promise and demonstrated financial need to pursue a baccalaureate degree. Demonstrated financial need includes a low family and student income and assets in light of educational expenses, and substantial unmet educational costs, after taking into account other scholarships and grants students may receive. Students in any discipline are eligible for nomination.
The program provides funding for tuition, room and board, required fees, and books for the remainder of the recipient's undergraduate degree. Scholarship amounts vary based on several factors, including costs at the institution each recipient attends and other grants and scholarships the student receives. Awards can be for as much as $30,000 annually.
To be eligible for the program, a student must either be enrolled at an accredited community college or two-year institution and hold sophomore status, or a recent graduate. Students must also have a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher and plan to transfer to a four-year college or university to begin studies in the fall.
Each accredited two-year institution may nominate up to four candidates depending upon institutional enrollment. To seek nomination, contact Roger Springer at 740.753.7080.
