Important Dates and Deadlines

The 2012 scholarship season is going extremely well! We are excited about how many applications we have received, and we are busy processing and scoring all of them. If you would like to volunteer to help with this process, visit our volunteer section to learn more.

We will be making winner decisions for the 2012 scholarship season in early March. All applicants will be notified by mail in mid-March.

Please note that we are past the deadline to submit applications for the 2012 season. We will post dates/deadlines for the 2013 season over the summer.

To request an application, click here and complete the Application Request Form. Please note that only school officials (teachers, counselors, principals) can request an application. All requests received at this time will be added to our 2013 distribution list.

If you fall into one of the following categories, please note that you do not need to request an application – you are already on our distribution list:

• Any school that has previously received an application
• Any school in Maryland, Delaware, or Washington, DC
• Any school in the Pittsburgh Public School District, Atlanta Public School District, Indianapolis Public School District, or Battle Creek (Michigan) Public School District

If you have any other questions, please contact our Scholarship Director, Rebekah Lin, at rebekah@carsonscholars.org.

Previous Scholars

In 2013, we are hoping to start to move away from paper applications for previous scholars. This means we will heavily rely on email addresses. To make sure we have your updated email address, please click here to email Louise. If you have multiple email addresses, we are happy to add all of them to our database - just let us know!

Fall 2012 Payouts

Fall 2012 Payout Request Forms will be available in May. Payout Request Forms will be posted on our website (in the scholar alumni section), emailed to all eligible scholars, and mailed to all eligible scholars. In order to receive a Payout Request Form via email or mail, we need to have you current contact information! To make sure we do, please click here to email Louise.

Eligible scholars for the Fall 2012 will be those who graduated from high school between 2008 and 2012.

Please note that you must be enrolled full-time at an accredited college or university in the United States to receive your payout. You must also be enrolled in a Bachelor’s-Degree-track program.

The postmark deadline for Fall 2012 Payout Request Forms will be July 6th, 2012.
