Middle School Scholarships – It’s Never Too Early To Think About The Future!
Dear Parents, The following is a scholarship available to middle schoolers we just received. Kent Cooke is a national scholarship program which supports programs and causes around the world. The Cooke Young Scholars Program is a selective 5-year, pre-college scholarship for high-performing 7th-grade students with financial need. It provides comprehensive academic and college advising, as well as financial support for school, Cooke-sponsored summer programs, internships, and other learning enrichment opportunities. To be eligible for the Young Scholars Program, an applicant will:
Be entering 8th grade in the fall of 2019.
Have earned grades of mostly A’s since the sixth grade, with no C’s or below in core academic subjects (English/language arts, math, science, social studies/history, foreign language).
Share the most recent score report from their state’s standardized testing.
Demonstrate unmet financial need. We will consider applicants with family income up to $95,000. Last year’s cohort of new Cooke Young Scholars had a median family income of approximately $39,000.
Reside in the United States or a U.S. territory, and plan to attend high school in the United States.
The application deadline is Thursday, March 14, 2019 at 12:00 p.m. (noon) EST. Learn more about the scholarship program or apply now: www.jkcf.org/ysp.
