Educational Grants Process and
2009-2010 Review
The Educational Grants Committee provides funds for the post-secondary education of Manhasset High School graduates in financial need. The program allows the grants to be provided throughout college with the students reapplying each year. It is an excellent opportunity for our school community to continue to support our students' achievements as they further their education.
In June 2010, the Educational Grants committee selected 18 recipients to receive a total of $24,000, a substantial increase over the prior year's grant of $17,500. The awards ranged from $500 to $1,500 per student. Each award will be paid in full for the Fall Semester.
Students are required to complete an application providing financial information and plans for college. Applications are reviewed in June by a committee comprised of SCA members and guidance counselors.
Important Dates for 2010-2011:
May 2011: Applications are mailed home to Seniors and to past recipients. Applications are also made available through the Guidance Office or the Manhasset SCA website. Educational Grants are need-based for eligible Manhasset High School graduates.
June 2011: Applications are reviewed by the Educational Grants Committee. Recipients are notified.
August 2011: Recipients submit bills for the Fall Semeste; check is sent directly to the college from the SCA.
