The Margaret Sanders Scholarship
Dear Colleagues:
Enclosed please find an application packet for the Margaret Sanders Foundation International Schools Scholarship. Please pass this on to your guidance counselor so that he/she can inform your seniors of this opportunity.
Each EARCOS school is invited to submit ONE application to the EARCOS office for this scholarship. The EARCOS office will, in turn, select one application to submit to the Foundation for United Way. If any of your students are interested, the application must be received in the EARCOS office by November 21, 2009, so that EARCOS can submit its selection to the Foundation by the deadline of January 15, 2010.
We hope that some of your students will be interested in applying. The winners receive good coverage in several international publications. Last year, TRA MY LE from Saigon South International School was one of the four worlwide winners of the Margaret Sanders Scholarship—it would be wonderful if another student from the EARCOS region would be selected this year.
One thing I’ve learned is that a handsome portfolio and a well-written essay are of utmost importance.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Dick Krajczar
Executive Director
