»Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp Press Club Scholarship Program

The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp Press Club Scholarship Program was created in 1999 by the board of The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp Press Club to recognize colleges and universities within a five-county area that actively support the Press Club. For the first five years of the program, an annual award will be presented to a deserving junior or senior student who is majoring in communications, journalism, or public relations at The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp. The annual award will increase for the sixth and subsequent years of the program.

To be eligible, a student must have junior or senior status at The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp during the semester in which the award will be paid; demonstrate outstanding academic performance as evidenced by his or her academic transcript; be pursuing a declared major in communications, journalism, or public relations; and show professional promise through a track record of involvement in professional work or internships or student activities related to the field; samples of work, and an essay describing plans for a career in communications, journalism, or public relations. Based upon the aforementioned criteria, the University's scholarship committee will select a recipient. A student may receive the award a maximum of two times by going through the application and review process, but the award cannot be renewed automatically.

The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp Press Club Scholarship will be promoted in all literature concerning awards and in presentations to prospective students. A member of the Press Club's Board will be present to make the award, and each annual award will be publicized by the University with prominent mention of The »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵApp Press Club.
