By selecting an award type for your scholarship, students can more easily connect with the scholarship that is right for them. We ask that you select the one award type that best describes the main criteria used to select the recipient.

Examples:
If the recipient of your scholarship is selected solely on academic performance, simply select Scholastic Based as your award type.

If your scholarship criteria include academic scores and financial need but preference is given to a student who has been active in his or her community, then choose Service Based as your award type.

If your scholarship is selected on a combination of different criteria and each carries equal weight in the selection process, then choose Multiple Criteria as the award type.
