Carlson scholarship applications due to Worcester Prep Feb. 5
Worcester Preparatory School is currently accepting applicants for the Sara Chase Carlson Scholarship for students entering ninth grade in September 2022.
An outstanding student will have the opportunity to join the Worcester Prep program, which is recognized for its high academic standards, small classes, individual attention and strong sense of community. A need-based, four-year high school scholarship covering tuition is available for a new student – a value of more than $64,000 over four years.
A recent Worcester Prep graduate, Damiana Colley, achieved the Sara Chase Carlson Scholarship and joined Worcester Prep in ninth grade. Upon graduating in May 2020, Colley moved on to attend the University of Maryland. In November 2019, she was featured in Metropolitan Magazine’s Student Worthy spotlight.
“I was looking to this scholarship as a way for me to prepare for the future,” she said. “Winning the scholarship was so great for me. It has given me so many opportunities and experiences that I wouldn’t have had elsewhere. I’ve been exposed to so many different and unique things because of it. It’s let me pursue my art much further than I ever expected.”
Selection is based on the following criteria: New student entering the ninth grade; strong academic ability; strength in the arts and/or technology; and demonstrated financial need.
The application deadline is Saturday, Feb. 5.
