  • Enter the total dollar amount of the scholarship(s) you wish to offer. You may enter special instructions in the comment field below. If you wish to provide multiple scholarships, enter the total amount of funding, and note the details in the "Special Instructions" field below. To have a meaningful impact in reducing the cost of college for students, we recommend establishing new scholarships at $1000 or higher.
  • How should the scholarship be listed in our records? Examples: John Smith Memorial Scholarship, Company A Scholarship, New Haven Teacher's Association Scholarship, Lions Club Scholarship. If, this scholarship is to be categorized within a group (PASE, DAAA, MVTF, etc.), please include that at the beginning of the name.
  • You may enter up to six selection criteria.

    See examples of qualifications.

    We strongly recommend using objective criteria, as those types of qualifications work well with our AwardSpring scholarship system. If you aren't sure how to make your criteria objective, just enter your thoughts and we will assist.
    If not specified on this form, scholarship recipients will be selected by the Foundation board. If you will have a team of scholarship reviewers, we will need the name and email address for each person prior to January 31. You may include that information in the instructions, if you know it now.
    The selection process must be impartial. If any reviewer has a close personal relationship with an applicant, that person must abstain from the review process for that year. This may happen on occasion, and Foundation board members would be happy to assist you with the review process.
    Payment in full is due prior to the announcement of scholarships to the students by January 31 of each year. Mail payment to: New Haven Schools Foundation P. O.
