ATTENTION 7TH GRADE STUDENTS

The Jack Kent Cooke Foundation Young Scholars Program offers the most personalized, generous scholarship and educational support to exceptionally promising students who have financial need from across the nation. Scholars receive comprehensive advising and financial support from the 8th grade through high school.

Selection Criteria

Young Scholars are chosen based upon the criteria below. While all of these criteria are important, the Foundation pays particular attention to the first two.

• High academic ability and achievement: Strong academic record, academic awards and honors, and substantive assessments by educators providing confidential letters of recommendation. We consider grades, achievement test scores, participation in available honors or advanced courses, commitment to learning, and work ethic.
• Financial need: Limited family income and insufficient funds to cover significant out-of-pocket education-related expenses. The average family income of our previous class of Young Scholars was approximately $25,000.
• Persistence: Determination and perseverance in the face of challenges, ability to set and remain focused on goals and to put in the effort needed to meet those goals in the face of obstacles.
• Service to others: Purposeful and meaningful commitment to others which may be evidenced by participation in volunteer/community service activities.

Antioch College Fair

The Antioch College Fair is back, and we plan for it to be bigger and better this year! The fair will be held on Saturday, 9/23/2017 from 10a - noon in the 590 building; lunch will be served at the conclusion.
