Scholarship Applications
This scholarship page is in the process of being updated 
and switched over to a portal, which should considerably streamline the process for all involved. The applications will be made available at the time when the portal is ready, which we expect to be by February 8.
The deadline for the BASIC Scholarships applications will be sometime in mid-March of 2021. Please check back frequently for our updated and improved process!
