Dear Scholarship Applicant:


Thank you for your interest in the Augustus Society Scholarship Program for students of Italian Heritage. To be eligible for our Scholarship, there are specific criteria that must be met:

1. You must be of Italian Descent
2. You must be a Legal Resident of Clark County, Nevada
3. You must be a Full-Time Student for the Scholarship year

While all students who meet the above criteria are candidates for an Augustus Society scholarship, our scholarship awards are based on financial need, community involvement, academic ability and grade point average. While all of these factors will be considered in awarding our scholarships, financial need will receive the heaviest weighting in determining the award recipients.

• $1,000 Scholarship award to be used for Tuition, Books, and School Supplies.
• Scholarship awards will be presented at our Annual Scholarship Banquet in the spring 2012 (date, time and location to be announced). Attendance at the banquet is mandatory to receive a scholarship award.
