Prior to November and December, students can research State and National scholarships on Fastweb, The Washboard and other online databases. Students should also check the Financial Aid or Scholarship Page of the website of the College they are applying to. Make sure your college applications for specific colleges are submitted in time to be considered for scholarships.
EWHS Senior Scholarship Application EWHS Seniors should plan to fill out the purple EWHS Senior Scholarship Application and optional Financial Resources Supplement. It is available in the Documents section of Naviance. Hard copies are available in the Career Center. Complete and turn in to Mrs. Lipscomb in the Career Center.
