Scholarship Application

[jcooke]

Has anyone applied for a scholarship through TESU? I just submitted a request for their Special Scholarship Award Fund. I had originally set the goal to graduate in December, but my wife got COVID back in April, and we’ve been a 1 income household ever since. I figure I could get together the other fees if I could just get help affording the two required courses for the BSBA. I saw that there was a way to apply for it, and I gave it a shot. I’m really hoping it might go somewhere. Any advice on what to expect or not expect?

I submitted scholarship. I think it took about 2 weeks to get back notice in email.

What scholarship are we talking about and where do we sign up?
Where do you see the requirements for each of the scholarships?

Here is the link to their scholarship page:

It goes over the scholarships offered, general requirements, and what the funds can be used for.
Still very vague on what exactly they are looking for.

Yesterday they emailed their decision:

Dear Jeremy,

For those at TESU: Just wondering, did you get an email from TESU about financial aid? And the amount they gave you for Aid? Strange, I received one email and they mentioned they provided aid for the entire course for me... but I was charged a portion of the course. I was curious if you got something like that as well.
