Last week to submit your nomination for the Marion Flagg Scholarship Program!

Dear Colleague, 

What better time than now to consider how you can help others in 2017! The deadline to submit a nomination for the Marion Flagg Scholarship Program is February 6! This program gives you the perfect opportunity to provide support to colleagues and friends in the field of college counseling and admissions.  The form to nominate can be accessed through this link. 
Named for one of PCACAC's most outstanding members, the Marion Flagg Scholarship is awarded annually to a group of exceptional educational professionals who are not currently members of PCACAC and who have not previously attended a PCACAC conference. This scholarship specifically targets counselors who work with historically underserved students, minority students or students from disadvantaged backgrounds. Each awarded scholarship includes one year of free membership in PCACAC, one 2017 Annual Spring Conference registration, hotel lodging (two nights, double occupancy), and transportation. Scholarship recipients will be asked to confirm their attendance at the conference if selected.  Before submitting a nomination, please ensure the nominee is willing and able to attend the program if selected.
The Inclusion, Access and Success Committee oversees the selection of scholarship recipients. The recipients may be high school counselors, two- or four-year college admission professionals, independent counselors or individuals working in community-based organizations such as KIPP, Upward Bound, the College Success Foundation, AVID, etc. Selected recipients and their nominators will be notified no later than March 1, 2017.  Award certificates will be presented to recipients at the 2017 Annual Conference.



Thank you for supporting this professional development opportunity for admission professionals like yourself!

Sincerely,
Rachel Cleaver
Marion Flagg Program Chair
