SCHOLARSHIPS

Selection

Scholarship award decisions are made by the board of directors of the Crystal Dreams Foundation based upon the candidate's application, essays, need and personal interview.

Each completed application package is read and reviewed by three impartial teachers or business professionals from the local community. The applications are ranked, and finalists are selected. Members of the Crystal Dreams Scholarship Committee will interview each finalist in person or via telephone conference. The number of scholarships awarded and their amounts will be based upon the number of finalists and available scholarship funds at that time. Candidates will be evaluated on the following criteria:

•  Completeness of application package
•  Content of essays
•  Clarity of direction and goals
•  Academic achievement
•  Letters of recommendation
