SALUTE TO EDUCATION INFORMATION PAGE
FOR COLLEGE ADVISORS

ATTENTION ALL CAP/BRACE/COLLEGE ADVISORS:  Salute to Education has gone paperless!  We have created this College Advisor Page to be able to provide you with all of the necessary information you will need on the 2009-2010 Salute to Education Scholarship Program to provide to your students!  We hope you will utilize this page and help us in promoting our scholarship program to your students.  Please read further about changes we have made to the program. 

NEW CHANGES TO THE
2009-2010 SALUTE TO EDUATION PROGRAM

* SCHOLARSHIP CATEGORIES HAVE BEEN REDUCED TO FOUR (4) MAIN CATEGORIES with two sub-categories under Arts and two-sub-categories under Sciences.  The distribution of the scholarships under the categories of Arts and Sciences will depend on how many finalists are within the sub-categories.  For example, if there are more finalists under the subcategory of Performing and Visual Arts then more of the scholarships will be provided to those students under the Arts category.  This is the only way for Salute to Education to distribute the scholarship dollars as evenly as possible. Please note that Social Science and Vocational/Technical are no longer categories. 

Following is a list of the scholarship categories for the 2009-2010 Salute to Education Scholarship Program:

1. ATHLETICS
   
   
2. ARTS (With subcategories for students who demonstrate excellence in the areas of  Foreign Language/Language Arts or the area of Performing and Visual Arts)
   
   
3. LEADERSHIP/SERVICE
   
   
4. SCIENCES (With subcategories for students who demonstrate excellence in the areas of Math/Computer Science or the area of Natural Science)

* NO MORE INDIVIDUAL APPLICATION VERIFICATION FORM:  Applicants no longer have to fill out and sign an individual application verification form after they submit their application online.  Once the finalist are chosen, one combined application verification form listing the finalists per school will be sent to the college advisor at that school. Each student listed needs to sign off next to his/her name acknowledging that their information is correct and they understand how the scholarship funds can be spent.   Then the college advisor will sign off on the combined application verification form confirming that the student is who he/she says he/she is.
