Applications for R. Orin Cornett Memorial Scholarship and the Carol Shuler Memorial Scholarship Due Soon


 The NCSA awards two scholarships each summer to students beginning or continuing their higher education studies: the R. Orin Cornett Memorial Scholarship and the Carol Shuler Memorial Scholarship. The Cornett Memorial Scholarship awards $1,000 to a student who resides in the United States. The Shuler Memorial Scholarship awards $500 to a student from the West region (Arizona, Alaska, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah or Washington). Qualified individuals may apply for both scholarships. The winners of these scholarships serve as role models for cuers around the country by writing an article for On Cue and serving as a resource to families new to cueing.

The deadline for submitting the 2010 scholarship application is March 15, 2010.
