Welcome to Your Senior Year at South Carolina Virtual Charter School

7/29/2019 Welcome to Your Senior Year at South Carolina Virtual Charter School

1/17

Welcome to your Senior Year at South Carolina Virtual Charter School. As you begin

the final chapter in your high school career, it is important to look ahead and plan

for your Post-Secondary Training. As part of this process, it is imperative that you

do your college and scholarship searches so you will be prepared to take this next

big step.

Listed below you will find examples of scholarships that may be available. Please

make sure to check with the provider directly for deadlines and other important

information. Students should do their own research in addition to looking at this site

to find scholarships that would be right for them. Please make sure you keep a

calendar with these important deadlines so you will not miss out on an opportunity

you may qualify for!

In this Newsletter I have also included Scholarship Websites that you can access to

carry out your research to gather information and apply for other scholarships that

have not been included in this listing! Ms. Diane Harrill, 12th Grade Counselor
