John Cannon Memorial Scholarship Application Due

The John Cannon Memorial Scholarship is awarded to an exceptional student who intends to major in television, telecommunications, or a similar communications-related field at a four year college or university. The scholarship will be distributed over a four-year period with $10,000 awarded prior to the first year of study, and three additional awards of $10,000 granted in subsequent years.

 

To be eligible for the continuing awards, the recipient must demonstrate satisfactory progress towards a degree and remain in a communications-oriented program. The scholarship award may be used for tuition, books, living expenses, and other related costs.

 

Application forms may be downloaded from the Foundation's scholarship website listed below. While considerable emphasis is placed on the creative accomplishments of each applicant, college board scores are also required. Those who have not already taken the ACT or SAT should do so by October 22 or November 5, to assure that they will have scores to report when the application is due.

 

Students who are interested can come to the Counseling Office and pick up a copy of the flyer.
