THE

F.O.R.W.A.R.D.

SCHOLARSHIP AWARD

 

FUNDING.  The fundamental purpose of this minimum $250 award is to assist college-bound seniors and enrolled freshman with the associated costs of their post-secondary education.  These funds can be applied to tuition fees or secondary expenses such as books, housing, transportation, etc.

 

OUTSTANDING.  Academic achievement can be a reliable indicator of a student’s work ethic, priorities, tenacity and of course aptitude.  While everyone will not always, due to varying circumstances, attain the highest plateau of academic excellence in maintaining a GPA of 4.0 or better, we believe that a minimum GPA of 3.0, taken together with other required variables, will give opportunity to equally deserving students who might otherwise not merit consideration of an award of this nature.

 

RESOURCEFUL.  Often various intangibles are considered in the total evaluation of a prospective applicant.  Intangibles such as cooperativeness, enthusiasm, honesty, and selflessness are often greatly valued in aspirants.  We believe that many of these qualities can be revealed through involvement in service-oriented activities which can not only highlight resourcefulness but strong character as well.

 

WORK.  The body of work subject to possible evaluation includes, but is not necessarily limited to: grades, national test scores, specific class assignments or projects, placement in contests and competitions, and individual and group extra-curricular achievements.

 

ARCHITECTURAL.  Our desire is to assist students who have shown a proficiency in and proclivity toward the study of architecture and engineering or related subjects and careers.

 

RELATED.  The field of architecture branches into a diverse and varied number of occupations.  Your interest may fall into one of the following career paths or may even further branch from one of them.  If you’re not completely sure about the relevancy of your anticipated major or vocation to this award, apply regardless, as there’s a better chance that it indeed will be than that it might not.

 

DISTINCTION.  What is there which causes you to stand out among your peers?  How does your academic record reflect your abilities and ambitions?  Have you significantly achieved in the area of your vocational interest?  Can you express yourself impressively and communicate in a professional manner where appropriate?
