Free college tuition blast May 3

Your child may be eligible to attend college for FREE. 

Washington County Community Foundation is sponsoring a 21st Century Scholar Sign-Up Day on May 3, 2018 from noon to 7 p.m. at the Community Learning Center, 1707 N. Shelby Street in Salem.  Current Washington County seventh and eighth grade students are encouraged to enroll in the 21st Century Scholar program on this day at the center.  Families that submit their application on this day will walk away with a $10 gift card to a local business AND be entered in a drawing for a $150 gift card.  The blast day is for students not already enrolled in the program.

If you are unable to attend the Free College Tuition Blast on May 3rd at the Community Learning Center, please contact your student’s school counselor for a time to fill out the 21st Century Scholar application. 

Indiana’s 21st Century Scholars Program offers income-eligible Hoosier students up to four years of paid tuition at an eligible Indiana college or university after they graduate from high school. In middle and high school, 21st Century Scholars are connected to programs and resources to help them plan, prepare, and pay for college. Once in college, Scholars receive support to complete their college degrees and connect to career opportunities.

For more information, please contact the student’s school counselor or the Washington County Community Foundation at 812-883-7334 or Karen Barry at the Community Learning Center at 812-883-6989.
