Miami University Darke County Alumni
Book
Scholarships Available to Incoming Freshmen and Current Miami Students
from Darke County
The Miami University Alumni Club of Darke County is sponsoring book
scholarships for high school seniors accepted and planning to attend
Miami University, as well as current Miami freshmen, sophomores, and
juniors. Students must live in Darke County, attend a school in
Darke County, or graduated from a Darke County high school.
Applications should be requested from the graduating high school. The
Miami University Alumni Club of Darke County has awarded $31,500 in
scholarships to 50-plus Miami students since 2006. Scholarship values
may vary depending on the number of applicants and the screening
process of the scholarship committee.
Applications for this book scholarship and information can be obtained
through all Darke County high school counselors. All applicants
need the following requirements: academic honors and extracurricular
activities resume; a personal essay; and two reference forms. High
school students need an official high school 7th semester transcript
including any PSEOP grades and a copy of MU acceptance letter.
Current Miami University students need to provide the committee with a
web generated transcript showing all past and current courses as well
as grades. No monies will be released to the freshmen scholarship
winners until after the fall semester (2015) has been successfully
completed. Current Miami students’ scholarship monies will be
released in August of 2015 when the student has provided proof of
full-time status to the MU Alumni Treasurer, Mrs. Heggie. All
students must be enrolled full-time (minimum of 12 hrs.) at Miami
University or a Miami branch campus. A student can only receive the
book scholarship four times, provided a new application is submitted
each year.
All applications must be postmarked or received by the scholarship
chairperson no later than April 15th. NO emailed or
hand-delivered applications will be accepted. Applications must
be complete with all required documents. Any application that is
incomplete will not be considered for scholarship monies. If you have
any questions, please contact Amy Hoying at 937-295-9865 or
ahoying@embarqmail.com.
