Homecoming scholarships are privately funded
and are awarded at the annual Massage Therapy Symposium and
Spring Gathering.
APPLICATION INFORMATION: 2009 MASSAGE THERAPY
SYMPOSIUM AND SPRING GATHERING
Application Deadline: To be announced.
Eligibility: U.S. and international massage
therapy students, T1 and above.
Application forms: Application forms are
available online (click on the links listed below for each
scholarship) or you may pick up forms in the Student Records
and Financial Services office (SRFS).
Application Process: Turn in
your application, with attachments, to the Student Records
and Financial Services office no later than 4:30 p.m.
on the day of the application deadline.
This general information is for your review and is subject
to change. As deadlines for application are established, the
Student Records and Financial Services office (SRFS) will
notify enrolled massage therapy students via email about the
application process.
Funding for most of these scholarships
is dependent on economic trends over the past year. Based
on this information, the Accounting Department informs us
what scholarships can be offered and the dollar amounts that
can be awarded. In order to give you something to apply for,
a list is provided of possible scholarships. If there are
particular scholarships on the list that interest you, make
sure all of the criteria required for that scholarship are
included with your application form. You may submit criteria
for more than one scholarship (if more than one scholarship
is available).
Many scholarships require a Faculty Evaluation & Recommendation
Form. A Faculty Evaluation & Recommendation Form will
be available online or may be picked up in the SRFS office.
You may leave those forms with a faculty member, who will
be responsible for forwarding the completed form to the SRFS
office by the application deadline.
NOTE: If you are required to complete a Free
Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) because you are normally
eligible to receive federal student loans, you must have already
filed your FAFSA prior to submitting a scholarship application
in order to be considered for an award.
Award
recipients will be decided by the NWHSU Scholarship Advisory
Committee. All award recipients will be notified by e-mail.
Recipients will be asked to attend the evening dinner during
the Massage Therapy Symposium and Spring Gathering where all
names, trimester levels, and state/province of residency will
be announced to attendees.
If you have any questions about
the scholarships or process for awarding, please contact Marla
Warner in the SRFS office at (952) 888-4777, ext. 440 or mwarner@nwhealth.edu.
