EMBRACING THE FUTURE:

CLARK COLLEGE 75TH ANNIVERSARY SCHOLARSHIPS
   

Two new scholarships will be offered to Clark College students
as part of the college’s 75th anniversary celebration

VANCOUVER, Wash. –  In celebration of Clark College’s 75th anniversary, two new scholarships are being offered for the 2009-2010 academic year.  One scholarship will be awarded to an incoming Clark College student, and one scholarship will be awarded to a continuing Clark College student. 

Each recipient will receive a $3,000 scholarship toward tuition for one year and $750 in books and supplies at the Clark College Bookstore.  Scholarship recipients must take a minimum of ten credits per quarter.  Scholarship and supplemental funds will be paid quarterly. 
  

The scholarships are made possible through donations provided by Arnerich, Massena & Associates, Inc. in support of the college’s diamond anniversary.

Application forms are available in Microsoft Word and interactive PDF format on the Clark College Web site:  www.clark.edu/anniversaryscholarship

The deadline for applications is Friday, April 10, 2009.  Scholarship recipients will be announced in mid-May.

Clark College President Robert K. Knight said, “Throughout our anniversary year, we have been dedicated to preserving the past, honoring the present and embracing the future.  I can’t think of a better way to embrace our future than by a scholarship which can literally change someone’s life, enabling them to make a positive difference in our region for years to come.”
