Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship Application Available August 1

Incoming high school seniors in Starke County have the chance to apply for a four-year, full-tuition scholarship to an Indiana college or university. Applications for the 2018 Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship will be available on August 1.

The program picks one graduating senior from each county to get a scholarship to any accredited public or private college or university in Indiana. In addition to reviewing students’ application essays, the selection committee also looks at their academic performance, as well as school, work, and community service activities. Finalists will also be interviewed by the committee.

Scholarship applications are due September 1, 2017, and a winner will be announced in early December. For more information, visit the Northern Indiana Community Foundation website or contact your school’s guidance department.
