The 2017 NC Hospitality Education Foundation Scholarship Awards applications are now open. The application cycle will remain open until March 10, 2017 (except for the JWU Chancellor Scholarship which will close Feb 15, 2017). Awards are for the 2017-2018 academic year & will be announced in the spring. NC HEF will host their Scholarship Award Dinner Sunday, May 7 at 6pm for all scholarship & grant recipients at the Sheraton Imperial RTP.
NC HEF awards over $50,000 in scholarship money each spring to high school seniors & college students studying to pursue their career in a hospitality related field. These awards can be applied at a 2 or 4-year school & although most of them are for in-state colleges, there is a new scholarship award (ProChef Scholarship) that can be awarded to a student attending school out of NC.
Attached is a help sheet for students to use to prepare for the online application. Please be sure to direct your students to the correct online google form & follow the instructions for electronic transcript submission. The application is found on "The NC Restaurant & Lodging Association" website at www.ncrla.org under “Foundation."
For questions about these scholarship opportunities please contact Mandy Hines, Director of Hospitality Education at the NCRLA, at [email protected] or 919-277-8583.
