SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS:
- April: Award notifications will be sent out in mid-April by the BWHS Guidance Office on behalf of the BWEF.
- May: Awards Night. Usually the first Monday. Seniors receive their scholarships publicly at this ceremony. “Continuing” winners do not attend.
- May: College Information Forms are required from every scholarship winner so that we may distribute funds accordingly.
- BWHS GRADUATION DAY: HARD DEADLINE FOR COLLEGE INFORMATION FORMS FOR ALL NON-SHIDECKER AWARD WINNERS. THIS INCLUDES SOME CONTINUING RECIPIENTS.
- ALL RECIPIENTS OF ALL SCHOLARSHIPS MUST FOLLOW THE COLLEGE INFORMATION FORM LINK TO SEE THE EXACT DEADLINE FOR THE AWARD YOU RECEIVED AS IT IS DIFFERENT FOR SHIDECKER VS. NON-SHIDECKER WINNERS.
- DO NOT MISS YOUR DEADLINE! No funds can be disbursed without your college information form, and you may forfeit your scholarship.
