The Triangle Luncheon Civitan Club of Durham Scholarship
The Triangle Luncheon Civitan Club of Durham will award two $1,000 scholarships during the 2018-2019 school year. These scholarships will be awarded to two seniors graduating in Spring 2019 from one of the Durham Public high schools who will further their education at a four year college (or a community college), beginning in Fall 2019. The students must reside in Durham County.
The financial award will be made directly to the Financial Aid Office at the selected student’s post-secondary school. Students selected as winners will be invited, with a parent, to attend a lunch meeting with Triangle Luncheon Civitan Club members during the summer of 2018. At that time the winner will receive a certificate of their award, and will be asked to speak briefly about themselves and their plans.
Scholarship winners will be selected by a committee composed of members of the Triangle Luncheon Civitan Club. Selection will be made based on points awarded by this committee when judging the various aspects of the applications. Decisions of this committee will be final, and will not be open to review or discussion. Points will be awarded as follows:
Academic Record – 25 points
Financial Need – 25 points
School activities or involvement – 20 points
Community Service activities or involvement – 20 points
Career Objectives – 10 points
Applications must be postmarked by April 20, 2019. School guidance counselors will be notified before the end of May of students selected as awardees.
The scholarship application consists of two parts:
Part 1 – Student Application To be completed by the student applicant, this form requires full information concerning the applicant’s academic record, family and student financial situation, student financial need, school and community involvement, and other considered factors. By completing and signing this section of the scholarship application, students are agreeing to allow their school to provide the information requested in the School Statement, and to the decision of the TLC Scholarship Committee.
